Accommodation

We offer a variety of comfortable, modern living spaces designed to help you feel at home while you study.

Accommodation

All first-year students who have registered for University residence accommodation may commence moving in from 23 January 2026.

The requirements for students to move into University residences are as follows: 

• Proof of residence registration • Proof of academic registration • A copy of the student’s identity document

Residence registration only becomes active on the system once a student has completed academic registration.

Once University residences reach full capacity, students will be referred to the VUT website for a list of accredited off-campus accommodation.
