UOW College currently uses BUPA as its OSHC provider.
When you receive your initial offer to study at UOW College, you will have the option to allow the College to organise OSHC through our preferred provider BUPA. Once you pay the full amount of tuition and OSHC fees, the College will advise BUPA that you have paid. BUPA will then register you as a member and issue you with a membership card.
If you want to arrange your own OSHC through a different provider, you can choose not to pay the OSHC fee to UOW College.
Please note - It is your responsibility to ensure that your OSHC is current for the duration of your Student Visa.

If you are bringing your family, you should organise family OSHC. Contact BUPA for details.
