Support for students
We provide a range of support services designed especially for residential students. You can also access the variety of services on offer from the wider university.
Academic Support
The Student Advising team provides you with individualised support for your studies. Student Advisors guide your transition into tertiary education, support you to achieve your academic goals and help you to get the most out of your university experience.

Scholarship and Bursaries
Indigenous Accommodation Scholarship
At La Trobe, we understand how important access to safe, secure and affordable housing is for our students.
That’s why we are offering Indigenous students a guaranteed place in our accommodation facilities across all of our campuses, as well as a scholarship that will cover any gap left after Rent Assistance – this means you’ll be able to live on campus at no financial cost to you*.
