We can book and pay for your ABSTUDY students to travel between their home and your boarding school or hostel. We can also book and pay for travel supervisors and visits to the school or hostel for family members.
If students are eligible, ABSTUDY Fares Allowance will pay for:
- prospective students to travel for orientation, open days and interviews
- students to travel to and from home and their boarding school or hostel at the start and end of term
- special purpose visit travel, such as to help homesick students
- travel for compassionate reasons or expulsions
- travel during an emergency or disaster.
When you’re ready to request travel for any of these reasons, you need to follow the steps to:
- assist students and families to make a Safe Travel Plan
- book travel with ABSTUDY.
You can also claim a reimbursement for travel costs.
