UC鈥檚 accommodation guarantee

To make new students鈥� lives as easy as possible, UC offers guaranteed accommodation to all first-year domestic and international students. This means every new student will be able to find a place to live.

UC recommends applying early to have the best chance of obtaining the room type you want. For example, UC鈥檚 studios are very popular and tend to book up quickly.

Remember that even if UC cannot offer you your first choice of room type, we will ensure that accommodation is always available for you.

What options are available to international students?

UC offers accommodation both on and off campus to accommodate students with different requirements and budgets.

Some students prefer to live on campus because it offers easy access to facilities and getting to classes is quick and convenient. Other students prefer living near attractions like malls, cinemas, bars and restaurants to experience more of Canberra鈥檚 city life and enjoy a wider range of social activities and job opportunities.

鈥淯C-enrolled international students are eligible to apply at any of those locations,鈥� explains the accommodation team.
