Since June 2020, the NSW Government — through Study NSW and Service NSW — has supported almost 5,500 international students through its $20 million scheme.  This measure has provided a safe home, comfort and support to international students facing hardship during the COVID-19 pandemic. ​

However, applications for the scheme will close at 5.00pm, Friday 12 February 2021. International students who apply on or before the application closing date may be eligible for up to 20 weeks accommodation with our student accommodation and homestay providers.

International students can apply for crisis accommodation here.
