Whether you’re looking to live on campus or somewhere nearby, we’ve got you covered for university accommodation. Choose from campus 'ressies' where you’ll live with other students or find a place of your own elsewhere in Canberra.
Depending on the time of year, it may be difficult to secure accommodation, so avoid the stress by starting your search early.
Student housing
Student housing is more than just a place to stay; it's a vibrant community designed to enhance your university experience from day one.

With options to fit every preference and budget, settling into university life has never been easier.
Room options are available at UC Lodge, Cooper Lodge, Weeden Lodge, Guginya, Mulleum, Gurubun, Wagan and Buru. We have a range of room types to suit your individual needs and budgets. Rooms rates start at low as $195.50 (inclusive of utilities) for multi share apartments. Check out the different options available, which include study and leisure spaces, room inclusions and social activities to find the perfect place to live at UC.
Placements are a core part of certain courses at UC. If you’re studying in the Faculty of Education or Faculty of Health, you can gain practical experience in a professional setting by completing a work placement – sometimes even as part of your Semester 1 Year 1 program.
Education and clinical placements have unique clearances and requirements that must be completed ahead of time. Most can be done after starting at UC, but you may need to consider some before the start of your first semester.
