  • Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC)

    Study Abroad and Exchange students are required to purchase approved Australian Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC). The cost for OSHC is calculated based on the length of the student's program. It is a condition of a student visa to have OSHC for the entire length of your stay.

    Some students will also all incur costs for specialist equipment (e.g. laboratory coats, microscopes, stethoscopes) and field trips.
