• Discounts on tuition fees and partial awards from individual Australian and New Zealand universities are, however, not a basic exclusion criterion. If the individual university agrees, the down-under grant also applies to reduced tuition fees. This depends on individual decisions.
• The Down Under grant only applies to tuition fees. There is no funding for exchange programs without tuition fees.
• Short stays, language trips, internships and other stays beyond semesters abroad or trimester abroad are not funded.
• The Down Under grant can only be claimed once and cannot be combined with the study allowance.
