College General Office
The College’s General Office provides a full range of information and support services to students, from pre-arrival to adaptation to life and study, and to post-graduation job search, including scholarship, language and academic support, on-arrival reception and orientation programme, counselling, student accommodation, career guidance, and further studies.
Please visit the College’s website
https://www.uowchk.edu.hk/
or contact the office directly for information on 852 2707 3111 and email
uowchk-main@uow.edu.au
.
Consulates in Hong Kong
More than a hundred nations and territories have established representative offices in Hong Kong. The contact information of these offices can be found in the following website of the HKSAR Government:
https://www.protocol.gov.hk/en/posts_bodies.html
Emergencies
If you have an emergency, such as a bodily injury or your property being taken, please do not hesitate to call the Hong Kong police. The police has a number of hotlines and
999
is the one for emergency help.
If you experience an emergency, e.g., fire, find yourself in jeopardy, or merely witness a crime, dial "999" to call the police, fire department, or call for an ambulance.
In the "e-report Room" on the Hong Kong Police Force's website, you may also report your missing property, online crime, etc.
Despite Hong Kong's low crime rate, pickpockets and those peddling counterfeit brand name items are not unheard of. You can find some helpful advice on how to protect yourself here.
Besides, do not panic when you are sick. Hong Kong has a world-class healthcare system that provides emergency and outpatient medical services 24 hours a day, seven days a week. If you require any medical services, public or private, during your stay in Hong Kong, you can refer to government’s websites such as:
https://www.dh.gov.hk/english/index.html
Department of health
https://www.ha.org.hk/visitor/ha_index.asp
Hospital Authority; and
https://www.orphf.gov.hk/en
A list of Registered Private Hospitals
If you have not arranged insurance before arriving in Hong Kong, the College will enroll you in a group plan. However, the policies normally only give limited and basic coverage and do not include medical or health insurance. Consult the College for details.
In any event, we highly urge you to secure your personal insurance coverage for the duration of your studies. Besides the basic package, you may opt for additional protection at your own discretion.
If you plan to travel outside Hong Kong, you should make sure that your existing insurance policy covers your destination. Otherwise, you are advised to buy additional travel insurance before your trip.
Here are some general suggestions to facilitate your arrival in Hong Kong.
You need a passport with a valid visa (if required), an offer letter from the College, travel itinerary, and tickets.
Bring the College's address and phone number, your accommodation address in Hong Kong and those of a contact person(s).
Although Hong Kong has a four-season subtropical monsoon climate, the temperature can be frigid in the winter. You should bring some warm clothing with you. A decent umbrella will also come in helpful, as Hong Kong has a lot of wet days throughout the year. Before leaving, make sure you have checked the weather forecast.
For transportation, meals, and other incidental needs, you may require some petty cash in Hong Kong Dollars (say for example, HK$10,000). Money exchange services are widely available across the city, including airport and banks.
Opening a bank account in Hong Kong may take some time. As you may need to withdraw money from your native country's bank account when you first arrive, please contact your local bank for further information.
The Hong Kong Dollar is the official currency of Hong Kong, and it is tied to the US Dollar. Over the last 30 years, its exchange rate has remained constant at roughly HK$7.8 to US$1. In Hong Kong, you do not need to bring much cash. It's advisable to have enough money to cover food, entertainment, and transportation for the first month or two. ATMs are widely available from a variety of banking institutions, and the amount withdrawn from your home account will be translated to Hong Kong Dollars at the currency rate at the time of the transaction (additional handling fee may be required for the service). Foreigners are welcome to open bank accounts in Hong Kong. All you need are your student ID card, passport and evidence of residency. If you do not want to deal with the headache of converting foreign currencies all the time, opening a local Hong Kong Dollar bank account is a good solution. It also makes receiving remittances from other countries easier. In addition to Hong Kong dollars, larger chain stores frequently take US dollars, albeit the conversion rate may be less favourable.

Emergencies
If you have an emergency, such as a bodily injury or your property being taken, please do not hesitate to call the Hong Kong police. The police has a number of hotlines and
999
is the one for emergency help.
If you experience an emergency, e.g., fire, find yourself in jeopardy, or merely witness a crime, dial "999" to call the police, fire department, or call for an ambulance.
In the "e-report Room" on the Hong Kong Police Force's website, you may also report your missing property, online crime, etc.
Despite Hong Kong's low crime rate, pickpockets and those peddling counterfeit brand name items are not unheard of. You can find some helpful advice on how to protect yourself here.
Besides, do not panic when you are sick. Hong Kong has a world-class healthcare system that provides emergency and outpatient medical services 24 hours a day, seven days a week. If you require any medical services, public or private, during your stay in Hong Kong, you can refer to government’s websites such as:

Department of health

Hospital Authority; and

If you have not arranged insurance before arriving in Hong Kong, the College will enroll you in a group plan. However, the policies normally only give limited and basic coverage and do not include medical or health insurance. Consult the College for details.
In any event, we highly urge you to secure your personal insurance coverage for the duration of your studies. Besides the basic package, you may opt for additional protection at your own discretion.
If you plan to travel outside Hong Kong, you should make sure that your existing insurance policy covers your destination. Otherwise, you are advised to buy additional travel insurance before your trip.
Here are some general suggestions to facilitate your arrival in Hong Kong.
You need a passport with a valid visa (if required), an offer letter from the College, travel itinerary, and tickets.
Bring the College's address and phone number, your accommodation address in Hong Kong and those of a contact person(s).
Although Hong Kong has a four-season subtropical monsoon climate, the temperature can be frigid in the winter. You should bring some warm clothing with you. A decent umbrella will also come in helpful, as Hong Kong has a lot of wet days throughout the year. Before leaving, make sure you have checked the weather forecast.
For transportation, meals, and other incidental needs, you may require some petty cash in Hong Kong Dollars (say for example, HK$10,000). Money exchange services are widely available across the city, including airport and banks.
Opening a bank account in Hong Kong may take some time. As you may need to withdraw money from your native country's bank account when you first arrive, please contact your local bank for further information.
The Hong Kong Dollar is the official currency of Hong Kong, and it is tied to the US Dollar. Over the last 30 years, its exchange rate has remained constant at roughly HK$7.8 to US$1. In Hong Kong, you do not need to bring much cash. It's advisable to have enough money to cover food, entertainment, and transportation for the first month or two. ATMs are widely available from a variety of banking institutions, and the amount withdrawn from your home account will be translated to Hong Kong Dollars at the currency rate at the time of the transaction (additional handling fee may be required for the service). Foreigners are welcome to open bank accounts in Hong Kong. All you need are your student ID card, passport and evidence of residency. If you do not want to deal with the headache of converting foreign currencies all the time, opening a local Hong Kong Dollar bank account is a good solution. It also makes receiving remittances from other countries easier. In addition to Hong Kong dollars, larger chain stores frequently take US dollars, albeit the conversion rate may be less favourable.
