👋 NEED AN SOS? FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE INFO 👋⁠
⁠
Unfortunately, the University seems to think the pandemic and its impacts are all over for students 🤔⁠
⁠
UMSU is disappointed that many support COVID resources rolled out by the University in 2020 stopped toward the end of the year.⁠
⁠
💥 UMSU’s campaigns for the University to provide further and better supports for students will continue 💥⁠
⁠
📌 In the meantime, UniMelb’s Financial Aid Service is the only University-based service that can help with grants, loans and financial support referrals.⁠

⁠
🌈 OR if you have financial problems which are associated with legal issues, such as debts or fines – the Financial Counsellor at the UMSU Legal Service may be able to help.⁠
