Living at KVUC
A supportive environment beyond the classroom
Accommodation is an important part of the student experience. Students are encouraged to choose accommodation that supports their academic goals, personal wellbeing, safety and participation in university life.
Whether you choose university-managed accommodation, where available, or private accommodation near the campus, make sure you understand the applicable rules, costs, facilities and responsibilities before making a decision.
Choose accommodation carefully
Confirm the location, cost, facilities, safety arrangements and tenancy conditions before committing to accommodation.
Accommodation Options
Where students can live
Accommodation arrangements may vary depending on availability and university policy.
Private Accommodation
Students may also consider privately operated hostels, rental rooms, apartments and other accommodation options located within convenient travelling distance of campus.
Shared Accommodation
Students who prefer shared living arrangements can consider suitable shared accommodation, subject to the terms and conditions agreed with the accommodation provider.
Before You Choose
Things to consider
Selecting accommodation is an important decision. Consider the following factors before signing an agreement or making a payment.
Living off campus?
Students who will not stay in the College hostels must fill in the Non-Residents Declaration Form: two copies, in capital letters, with a copy of your landlord's ID, signed by your landlord, a parent or guardian and a student witness who lives in the hostels. The Dean of Students then approves it.

Cost
Understand rent, deposits, utilities and any additional charges before committing.
