We are delighted to share that five of our students have secured the prestigious New Columbo Plan (NCP) Scholarship for 2024!
The NCP Scholarship awards up to $69,000 to Australian undergraduate students to pursue study and work experience opportunities across multiple locations in the Indo-Pacific region. Each year, La Trobe nominates 15 students to be considered for the scholarship by the Australian Government.
Our outstanding recipients succeeded through multiple rounds of the competitive application process to be awarded the scholarship. We offer our heartfelt congratulations and wish them all the best for the journey ahead!

The idea of immersing myself in a new culture, gaining new perspectives, learning a language and just overall growing as a person left me with an incredible feeling. I knew that the experiences and skills I’d gain would shape me into a more creative, culturally competent, and empathetic human and leader, no matter what occupation I entered in the future.
