BRIMBANK students wanting to experience life abroad are being encouraged to apply for an overseas scholarship with AFS Intercultural Programs.
The exchange program is offering 20 partial scholarships to schools and volunteer organisations across the globe, allowing students the opportunity to experience life abroad for up to six months.
Successful recipients will receive a $2000 discount to travel to the destination of their choice including Austria, Brazil, Chile, China, Costa Rica, France, Germany, Japan, Malaysia or Thailand.
Competition for the scholarships is high, so anyone interested is urged to apply early at www.afs.org.au.
Applications for some countries close on 1 April.
