Now's the time to apply for 2nd semester

27 May 2016.

If you’re planning to study in 2nd semester, it’s time to get your student finances organised.  Don’t worry if you're not sure where or what you’ll be studying - you can change it later. Even if you haven't got your results yet - apply now.

Reapplying for 2nd Semester

If you’ve received a Loan or Allowance in semester one, then login to MyStudyLink and use the quick and easy Returning Application.

Most of your application will be pre-filled from last time. All you need to do is check, update and tick the confirmation box for each section. Then leave the rest to us.

Have you completed your enrolment?

Your education provider won’t be able to confirm your new details with us until they’ve completed your enrolment. If you have any outstanding fees or need to complete additional requirements to enrol for 2nd semester, you may need to discuss this with them first.

First time student - thinking about going to study?

Make sure check out Can you afford to study? page. There is information about student life, what it will cost and the different ways you can support yourself.

Once you have decided to study, check what you can get and apply online.
