How SSAF is spent

2026 Funding Allocation

Each year UOW calls for submissions from student led groups, staff and affiliates for projects that to be funded by SSAF in the following year. This submission process requires prospective project managers to detail the value of the project, linking to SSAF Survey results and other consultation, aligning to the legislated SSAF criteria and outlining deliverables for the UOW student community.

UOW has made a commitment that 100% of the project submissions requesting SSAF will be directed to the Student SSAF Subcommittee for review and to provide recommendations to the UOW Senior Executive on allocations, with a minimum of 40% of the projects prioritised and noted to receive a direct allocation from this student led group.

On 5 November 2025, the Department of Education approved the 2026 UOW Transition Plan which requested a three-year transition arrangement to reach compliance with the amendments to SSAF legislation within HESA and associated guidelines, to allocate a minimum of 40% of SSAF revenue to student led organisations. This plan includes working alongside student led groups to improve their financial and corporate governance processes, and a capability uplift for student representatives involved with SSAF.

For the 2026 funding round, 70 submissions were received. UOW's SSAF Subcommittee, has identified 31 projects that they wish to invest in, to the value of $3,554,696.01. The SSAF Subcommittee has also reviewed the other 39 submissions and provided recommendations to the Deputy Vice Chancellor (Education) and Vice President (Operations) which has then resulted in the total allocation. All projects receiving SSAF in 2026 can be found below.

The SAC SSAF Subcommittee is a group of elected and appointed student representatives that voice student interests and provide direct input into the allocation of SSAF Fees. The SAC SSAF Subcommittee reviews project submissions and student survey data and then prioritises the importance of the project, providing recommendations to the University. See the Terms of Reference here.

There are many students who are financially stressed out, so Pulse Pantry can help them out where they can get all of their staple foods. It’s a great stress relief. For international students it doesn't make you feel like you are away from home, it makes it feel like this is your second home. Pulse volunteer

I came to the Academic Skills Centre. I pivoted from a Bachelor of Physics to a Bachelor of Mathematics. I enjoy one-on-one consultations with Danny which have been awesome and I’ve really accelerated my learning and grades which is pretty cool. Tori
