Exchange at Bond

Destination: World

Current Bond students have the opportunity to study at one of 80+ leading universities in our network of exclusive international partnerships, for one or two semesters. Exchange enables you to embark on a new adventure while gaining credit towards your Bond degree.

Not only do you get to live and study in another country, there are educational, personal and future career benefits that come from taking a semester overseas. You will gain an international perspective to your degree, develop increased self-confidence and maturity, and stand out to future employers from the challenges you overcome during the exchange experience.

Bond University currently has partnerships with leading universities all over the world; each offer their own unique benefits to students.

University and government funding, starting at $2,000, is available for student exchange to certain institutions. You must submit an application including references, program advisor approval, transcripts, and a personal statement to receive the funding.

Got lots of questions? Come along to an information session to find out more about exchange, our partners and the application process. You will also get to hear from exchange returnees as they share their experiences and advice.

When to go

The semester you spend abroad depends on where you want to go, the subjects available abroad and what semester will work best with your current studies. You'll also want to consider climate, holidays and activities abroad to decide when is the best time to visit. Our most popular exchange semesters are January and September, however May options are available.

What are the requirements

You must have completed one semester with a 65% (Cumulative Percentage Average) "CPA" (or for Law students 70%) before you apply. If you are considering the May semester talk to us, and we will let you know if it is possible. International students are also encouraged to explore a semester abroad

Funding

Funding starts at $2000 and is available to all exchange students. Select destinations have additional government funding of up to $6000 available, and the Cowin Scholarship for Western University, Canada is worth $7,500. Especially high-achieving students may be interested in applying for the prestigious New Colombo Plan Scholarship, worth up to $20,000.

Testimonial

Do it. Go on exchange. Nothing could ever prepare me for what I have experienced. Being here is out of this world, and it still feels so surreal. You only have one chance to experience the college lifestyle, and travelling like this is different to any other experience. I never want to leave and am already getting nostalgic over the memories I’ve made. Read more
