Getting Started Checklist 

The information on this site will help you understand the process, systems, key contacts and support that you will receive while studying at UOW College. Read the What I wish I knew when I started at UOW College for tips and advice from previous UOW College students.

You can undertake the new student enrolment process if you are ready to enrol. Before you do this, we encourage you to read the Enrolment Support page.

International Students:

  • Online enrolment is not available for international students.
  • Enrolment will be facilitated during the orientation session.

As you get closer to the start of the session, you may need to enrol in classes for each of your subjects. These classes could be tutorials, seminars, practicals, workshops, computer labs or studios. The date and time class enrolment are open is specific to each subject but is usually just before or during orientation week. 

Student Online Services (SOLS) is a vital online tool that you will use to self-manage your enrolment. Use the username and password that you created when you enrolled to access SOLS. It's also one of the key ways the University will communicate with you through 'SOLSMail' messages. It’s a good idea to check your SOLSMail regularly.

Your UOWmail account (username@uowmail.edu.au) is the primary way you'll communicate with the University by email. It’s important to check your UOWmail regularly so you don’t miss out on any important information. Set up your UOWmail account on your phone so you can easily access your emails and receive notifications. With UOWMail you can also download the entire Microsoft Office suite for free on up to five personal devices and store heaps of your data on OneDrive.
