Accommodation

As a Study Abroad student, you have the option of applying for pre-arranged accommodation (organised by Deakin) at several off-campus dwellings in Geelong and Melbourne, or at any of our on-campus residences.

These dwellings range from art deco-style houses to modern apartments and may include: single rooms, shared rooms, laundry facilities, shared kitchens, lounge areas, bed linen and towels, and more.

Demand for places in these dwellings is high and allocation is on a first-come, first-serve basis. You should submit your application early if you would like Deakin to organise pre-arranged accommodation for you.

When deciding which option to apply for, you should take into account the following:

  • cost (e.g. weekly rent)
  • type of accommodation (shared room, single room)
  • number of tenants
  • facilities available (e.g. laundry, shared kitchen)
  • meals (i.e. provided or self-catered)
  • distance to campus
  • location and access to facilities (e.g. close to shops, transport, beaches)
  • tenancy agreements and payment schedules.
