julia,
 
i can only give you what i know, i dare say it would be in your best interest to hang out a little longer to hear what other ozmiders have to say!
 
basically, as student we were enrolled with the expectation to complete pracs, however the insurance expired in feb and the uni were unable to find an australian company willing to cover us, they then went to london and what followed was months of waiting, and getting told 'we will have an answer for you in 48hrs' then to have the insurance company come back with stupid questions, delaying everything again!!
 
what now has happened, as far as i know, the gov along with the dhs has agreed to cover us - finally!!
 
this news came out last thurs, and the bmid student got a letter from the uni on the fri telling us that yes, we have cover. due the the public holiday here, i havent had a chance to speak face to face with any of the lecturers yet.
 
as said, this is only my picture of events and im sure there are others out there with more info, so keep tuned and i hope that i have helped out a bit!
 
good luck!
jessica.
