Student Support Advisers (SSAs)
Student Support Advisers are part of the Student Support and Peer Learning team at UOW. If you have a non-academic issue that is affecting your study, then we may be able to help. Every faculty has a SSA who you can contact with your concerns or problems. SSAs are based at Wollongong Campus and can help students at all UOW campuses and education centres.
