University of Canberra Lodging: Student Accommodation - Bruce, Australian Capital Territory (ACT), Australia
The University of Canberra provides its local and foreign students with spacious campus residences and accommodation. Also known as 'ressies,' these accommodation facilities house over 1,050 students. They are consolidated in the following residential blocks: Blocks PQR, COLHOUSE, IH, UV, Blocks A-H, and Blocks I-N.
The residential houses in UC are the following:
- Arscott House
- College House
- International House
- University Village
- Old Ressies
- New Ressies
- University Village
New students are advised to reserve their ressies in advance. Ressies have different payment modes to fit any type of student budget. For students who want to live off-campus, a number of off-campus accommodation not too far from the university are also available. Students can choose to rent directly from the owner, real estate agent, or from the university itself. For students on a budget, they can share accommodation with others. They also have the option to permanently reside in the house or stay there for only one school year.
UC also offers special accommodation like 'substance-free' areas, graduate age areas, women only areas and disabled student areas. The substance-free areas are residences that can be found in blocks A-H, I-N, and UV. They are called such because they are free from alcohol and drugs. They are quieter residences highly conducive for studying and resting. The graduate areas are offered to graduate students who are at least 21 years old. They provide older students with a quiet residence. The women only areas are for female students who are uncomfortable living in mixed environments.
The university accommodates international students who choose single-sex accommodation for cultural and ethical reasons. Disabled student areas are specifically constructed for students with handicaps and physical disabilities. Students can apply for campus residences by sending a completely filled-out application form and the necessary documents. It is recommended to look for residences early regardless of the type of student accommodation.
