<p class="MsoNormal">Off the top of my head, if something as simple as covering visa fees is enough, we can make more grants available. If we need to fully fund transport, then we can't offer as many grants. I hope we can come up with something clever for accomodation
some way - ie share an airBnB, I’m not sure how many people have spare rooms to offer these days in Australian cities :/. Actually - also - Martin - in late November, what’s the status of Uni accomodation? <o:p></o:p></p>
