HOUSING

Single rooms in residential colleges, apartments in university accommodation, or independent housing.

Students must apply independently for housing in Adelaide just as Australian students do. Students interested in the residential college or apartments in University accommodation should apply for these options early, even before they are accepted to the program. Please visit the University of Adelaide’s Accommodation Service for details.

Overseas Study encourages students to apply for more than one housing option simultaneously as there is limited space available. Some housing options will require an application fee and an extensive application. If there is no availability in the residential colleges or University accommodation, students will need to consider other housing options such as private rental accommodation. All students are eligible to apply for temporary accommodation during the first few weeks in Adelaide while they search for other housing options. If you have questions, please contact Overseas Study.
