The University of Melbourne offers more than a place to live with on-campus accommodation, you can experience all university life has to offer including social events and academic support.

Murrup Barak can support you to apply for on-campus accommodation which includes residential colleges and student accommodation affiliated with the University.

As an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander person studying at the University, you may be eligible for a secured spot in accommodation and financial help. We recommend to let us know if you are planning to live on-campus when you apply to the University.

Our Outreach team can also provide you with information about on-campus living if you are interested.
