Residence life is a special experience. Staying in a UNISA residence is an extension of students’ university education, where they can benefit from all the facilities and services such as student learning centres, social and sporting activities, life-skills and peer- programmes.
UNISA Student Residence
UNISA provides different types of accommodation for undergraduate and postgraduate students, on and off campus.
Usually, you will start out in a first-tier residence (full catering), move on to a second-tier residence (senior catering or self-catering) and later, stay in third-tier accommodation (semi-autonomous self-catering).
Each residence has its own history and traditions, but they all try to provide a great experience. Safety is of great importance to UNISA, so all residences have strict access control and most are covered by closed-circuit television cameras.
Students with disabilities can be accommodated in different residences. Simply contact the Student Accommodation Office and the Disability Service, and they will address your particular needs.
UniSA has several campuses in Adelaide. Each campus is located within a short distance of student housing, so you won’t have any trouble finding somewhere to live that’s close to your university. Think about your options carefully before choosing your student accommodation.
Please know that no hotel rooms have been reserved for conference participants. Delegates should make their own arrangements at their own cost.
On the last page of the registration form you will find links to hotels close to the UNISA campus.
