Student Support Advisers

(Previously known as SEDLOs)

Student Support Advisers are members of the Student Support and Peer Learning Team. They are based at Wollongong campus but are happy to help students at other campuses and education centres.

Things that a Student Support Adviser might help you with include:

• Helping out with non-academic issues that are affecting your studies.
• Advising you about who the best person or department is to help you resolve an issue.
• Knowing who to contact about a problem in the Faculty.
• Assisting you to deal with any international student issues such as adjusting to life in Wollongong, visa compliance and dealing with the Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIaC).
• Understanding how things work in Australia eg health, insurance , legal matters, renting houses etc
• Ensuring that your disability, illness or injury is taken into account whilst you study.
• Information about scholarships and financial support including Centrelink.
• Support during any grievances and appeals
• Giving you information about UOW policies and procedures including what they mean and how to negotiate them.

Student Support Advisers work with all students but are especially helpful for international students, students with a disability, equity and indigenous students for support in the faculty. Student Support Advisers assist any students who may need additional support to stay and complete their studies at university.
