Grants and Funding
New Colombo Plan (NCP) Mobility Grant
UniSA International Bonus Travel Grant
Thanks to the generous support of the New Colombo Plan, we have a number of A$7,000 grants to be awarded for Semester Exchange to select institutions in South Korea.
If you are accepted in the program and not be in receipt of an alternative travel grant (e.g., NCP Mobility Grant), you'll automatically be considered for the UniSA International Travel Grant of A$1,500. Conditions apply.

However, for SP5 2025, UniSA Global Opportunities is thrilled to offer eligible students a grant of up to A$1,500 in addition to the UniSA Travel Grant to study at selected countries/regions.
Don't forget to carefully map your courses; you'll need to take courses relevant to your UniSA degree in order to be eligible for a grant.

University Preferences and Course Choices
 List the institutions that you'd like to apply for in order of preference. You will need to include the names of the courses you're hoping to take at each host University, so please make sure you have thoroughly researched the courses in advance. These will not necessarily be the courses that you ultimately enrol into at the host university, however it's important that you've researched the possibilities before submitting your application.

TIP: Make sure you select courses at host universities that will be offered in the study period/semester that you're planning to go on exchange. For example, UniSA's SP2 is the equivalent of a Spring or Winter semester in the northern hemisphere, while an Autumn/Fall semester equates to UniSA's SP5. If classes have not yet been set for the year you'll be going, look at the classes taught in the same semester of the previous year.

Any applications submitted without appropriate host university courses may not be considered.
