Due to significant staff/resourcing constraints during 2026, Swinburne Abroad has had to reduce some program offerings. Unfortunately, this means we will not be able to offer the NCP Scholarship Program to Swinburne students for the 2027 round.

We hope to be able to offer the NCP Scholarship Program to students once again in mid-2027 (for the 2028 Round).

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact our team at exchange@swin.edu.au
