For short programs commencing in January 2027 and finishing in January or early February 2027, there is no guarantee that Monash Abroad can arrange your loan payment in time prior to your program completion. Therefore, we recommend that you do not apply for the 2027 maximum loan amount. OS-HELP loans cannot be paid after the completion of the overseas program. You should apply for a lower loan amount or the 2026 maximum loan amount and be assessed and paid in 2026.
