NSW Health is offering up to $12,000 for Nursing, Midwifery, Allied Health, Dentistry, Oral Health Therapy, and Medicine Students.     Over $120 million is up for grabs to support students studying health degrees. Starting in January 2024, the new subsidies offer up to $12,000 paid over three years for students starting their studies in 2024-26 and $8,000 one off payments for students starting work with NSW Health.      Terms and conditions apply and study areas eligible for the subsidy include: Aboriginal Health Practitioner, Clinical Psychology, Occupational Therapy, Pharmacy, Physiotherapy, Podiatry Radiation Therapy, Social Work, Sonography, Speech Pathology, Medical Interns, Midwifery, Nursing, Paramedicine, Medical Radiation Scientists, Medical Physicists, Dentistry, Oral Health Therapy, and Environmental Officers.

The Tertiary Health Study Subsidy Program is open to students who:

  • are Australian citizens, or Australian permanent residents, or New Zealand citizens, and
  • are studying an eligible tertiary health qualification at a recognised educational institution, and
  • are intending to commit to working for NSW Health.

For some health workforce groups, including nursing, paramedics, podiatrists and medical interns, you must be:

  • studying in a rural area, or
  • intend to commit to working in rural and regional areas.

Please visit the NSW Health website for more information.

There are a limited number of subsidies available, and applications will remain open until all subsidies are awarded.

While all eligible applications will be considered, small but critical workforces will be given preference, and those who intend to work in a regional and rural area in some workforce groups.

Please visit the NSW Health website for more information.
