Who is eligible for an OS-HELP loan?
There are a number of criteria that a student must meet to be eligible for an OS-HELP loan. The main criteria are that a student must be: an Australian citizen or the holder of a permanent humanitarian visa; a Commonwealth supported student enrolled in an undergraduate course of study at an Australian public higher education provider; and selected by their Australian higher education provider to receive an OS-HELP loan. Students cannot receive an OS-HELP loan for the first or last year (equivalent full-time) of their course of study.
