Students may be entitled to OS - HELP assistance for periods during which they are undertaking study overseas, if they meet certain requirements. In particular, their higher education provider must have selected them for OS - HELP assistance.
The amount of OS - HELP assistance is limited to a maximum amount for each period of study, and only 2 such periods can attract OS - HELP assistance.
The purpose of OS - HELP assistance is to help students based in Australia to do part of their course of study overseas.
Note: Amounts of assistance under this Part may form part of a person's HELP debts that the Commonwealth recovers under Part 4 - 2.
