As part of your segregated fees (collected together with your tuition fee), you can obtain legal consultant services through UW GSA. This program offers services such as housing disputes, employment disputes, public notaries and more. Note that if you are graduating soon and are currently getting involved in situations that need help from them, do remember to open the case before you graduate.

The university provides free immigration consulting for current students and recent graduates. However, it is important to note that it is very competative to get a spot to meet with them. Same as their enquire forms, which takes time for them to respond.

You might have already aware of that you can get covered for common medical care. Here's some additional benefits that you might want to check out:

• Dental: covers cleaning, filling, and more. Be aware of the annual limit.
• Vision: covers test and glasses (lens). Be aware of the annual/two-year limit.
• Travel Insurance: This is enough for a Schegen visa (at least for Germany and Switzerland). However, if you want to use this benefit, be careful of the definition of "travel" and the reimbursement procedure.
