We recommend you apply for UNSW accommodation early, although the on-campus UNSW apartments application generally opens in September. If you are a new undergraduate, the best month to search for UNSW student accommodation is typically between January and March. July and August are more suitable for returning students, and if you are a new postgraduate, you’d better look for your UNSW accommodation as soon as you receive your offer. Popular accommodation near UNSW fills up quickly, so securing your room before arriving in Sydney is crucial.
