Many students say one of the best parts of the university experience is living in a residence. UOW Accommodation offers a vibrant community, with students from diverse cultural backgrounds. Our residents enjoy being part of an active community, and many make friends for life.
Accommodation
We are experiencing unprecedented demand for UOW student accommodation and have extremely limited availability across our sites. For students with an active accommodation application, you can contact us here to check on availability and discuss your options.
See our Live off campus page for off-campus accommodation options.
If you are studying at UOW under the Study Abroad and Exchange program, and need accommodation, contact the Office of Global Student Mobility for advice at study-overseas@uow.edu.au.
