UOW - Kooloobong Building 37, Wollongong

Having an Accommodation Guarantee lifts a huge burden from the shoulders of students (and parents) who are looking for somewhere to live for their first year of study at the University of Wollongong. UOW is proud to be one of the few Australian universities to offer an accommodation guarantee.

Kooloobong Village is ideal for students who want to live independently in self-catered accommodation. Residents who live in Kooloobong Village have the benefit of living in the world’s first positive residence where programs are provided and are based on the Wheel of Wellbeing.
