We are here to help you!

The Student Services Unit provides help with:

• Health: if you're sick or need general health advice or travel immunisations (the medical service is bulk-billed);

• Housing: to help you find a place to live;

• Special Needs: services for students with disabilities or ongoing medical conditions;

• Finances: for loans and advice on budgeting, Austudy, tax, etc;

• Careers: for practical advice on your career, finding a job and graduate recruitment;

• Counselling: when things get tough at home or uni, and you need someone to talk to who can help;

• Chaplaincy: for pastoral or spiritual help (there are chaplains from nine different faiths or traditions on campus at UTS).

UTS provides lots of help with your study skills. You can see a Learning Skills Counsellor at Student Services, visit a Study Assistance Centre, check out the UTS Library's Information Skills & Training Program, get some tutoring or check out the UTS BELL Program. BELL helps you find exactly what you need to improve your study and workplace skills—whether it's a basic bridging course in maths, computer or language skills, or advanced postgraduate research techniques.

Of course, other types of facilities are also important. There are cafés, bars, eating and chill-out places on campus, and clubs, shops and cinemas in the city close by. So getting a life while you study at UTS isn't hard. Take part in a huge range of social, sporting and cultural activities. There's a gym, volleyball courts and about 60 clubs and societies you can join.
