Financial Help with Student Transport (Conveyance Allowance)
Families in rural and regional Victoria can get help with the cost of transporting their children to their nearest school or campus. This is known as the conveyance allowance.
The conveyance allowance is available to students travelling by:
- public transport
- private car
- private bus
- or to students whose nearest school is not serviced by a free school bus.
The conveyance allowance is a contribution towards transport costs and is not intended to cover the full cost of transporting children to and from school.
Who can apply?
The conveyance allowance is available to families who meet certain criteria.
Students attending a school must:
- attend their nearest government or non-government school/campus appropriate to their year level at which admission is permissible
- be enrolled at a school/campus outside Melbourne’s metropolitan conveyance boundary
- reside 4.8km or more by the shortest practicable route from that school/campus attended
- be of school age at the time of application, and reside in Victoria
Applications close on 7th June. Please see Nicole Elliott at the College Office if you have any questions.
