Make yourself at home

Living on campus is a great way to make your transition to uni easier. You don’t have to think about buying furniture or white goods. All of your bills (utilities and internet) are included in the weekly rental. Having heaps of different housemates is never boring. And your commute to class is negligible – which means a whole lot of sleeping in.

Prue talks about what it's like to live on campus.
I'm welcomed here and it feels good to be welcomed in a place that is far away."

Your wellbeing is important

We look after our res students. Sure – you get to live independently, come and go as you please and eat all the noodles you want, but we’re there to support you if you need it, 24/7. Heater not working? Lost your key? Need first aid? Give us a call, day or night. We can also connect you to University services like counselling, careers, equity, accessibility and more.

We have Residential Advisors (RAs) at every campus too. These student leaders provide general guidance, organise activities, enforce housing policies and work to resolve any issues. They'll help you navigate life on res, feel at home and – most importantly – have fun.

Imagine yourself living on res

Decorating your room. Hanging out in the communal lounge. Rolling out of bed and ambling to class. How nice would that be?
