Outline

Each year UNSW has a number of scholarships and awards available to support UNSW coursework students undertaking an overseas Exchange Program (outbound Exchange). Scholarships and awards are intended to assist with the costs of studying overseas, and are awarded across a range of areas.

University students from partner universities (inbound Exchange) or who are participating in the Study Abroad program at UNSW (inbound Exchange), should contact the Study Abroad and Exchange team for information on available scholarships and awards.

On this page you will find information on available scholarships and awards - some that require an application, and others that do not require you to submit a scholarship application. Further details can be found below and at UNSW Exchange Scholarships & Awards for 2024.
