Student Funding

To attend STAMP you will need between $12,000 and $15,000 to fund your living expenses. Without these funds you maybe excluded from attending.

The $12,000 to $15,000 budget doesn't take into account any credit or current financial obligations you may have. Obviously you will need more funds if you have any credit or existing financial obligations.

The following are some ideas that my help you in raising your funds. We will be adding to this list as time goes on. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions about this aspect of coming to STAMP.

 

Personal Savings

The choice to use any money saved to come to STAMP is a very personal one. If you have funds saved what we do know is the STAMP is a great investment and a worthwhile program to spend your money on.

If you are under 18 and considering coming to STAMP in future years why not start saving now? Find some part-time employment, open up a bank account and start saving for STAMP.

 

Help From Family

Can your parents or grandparents assist you in coming to STAMP? Each family has its own financial situation. Maybe as a parent you see STAMP as a worthwhile program for your young adult to participate in. Can you help your child financially to come to STAMP?

 

Help from the Australian Government (Centrelink)

STAMP is designed to absorb a full-time study work-load via OTEN. If you choose this option in lieu of studying the STAMP electives, then you maybe entitled to Youth Allowance assistance via Centrelink. This is an individual choice and you will need to comply with all the government policy to receive this money. Please see the Career Training page for further information on OTEN and Centrelink. New Zealand participants may not be able to access Youth Allowance, however the NZ Government may have similar study help.

 

STAMP Scholarship Fund (SSF)

The SSF is designed to offer scholarships to those wanting to come to STAMP. Go to the SSF link to read about the program. Unfortunately we can not offer scholarships at the moment as the capital base of the SSF is not substantial enough to do so. We will advise applicants when scholarships will be made available.
