How to apply

With Student Living, you get more than just a room. It's a chance to be part of community, build lifelong friendships, participate in events and activities, and be on the doorstep of your classrooms.

Living on campus is popular, so we recommend that you apply as soon as possible.

2026 and 2027 Application Dates

Mid Year Session applications

We will have limited availability for accommodation at Callaghan campus during the Mid Year Session (18 May to 31 July).

When completing an application, you'll be asked to provide proof of enrolment in courses during this academic session. Being considered for an accommodation offer will be contingent on these academic studies.

Please note:  receiving an offer for the Mid Year Session does not guarantee you a room for Semester 2 – there will be a separate application process for Semester 2 with date as listed above.

Are you a student looking for short-term accommodation?

We have short-term accommodation options at our partner property - Nihon University Newcastle Campus. Located in the heart of the Newcastle CBD, this is the perfect option for international and domestic students looking for temporary accommodation while familiarising themselves with the city.
