There is a brief intersession recess in July. Housing Students may apply for one of the residential colleges or live off-campus. Residential colleges in Australia are not run by the universities, so a separate application is required and students must meet the criteria of the particular residential college to which they are applying. Applications for residential college placement are handled through the Adelaide Study Abroad and Exchange office. Acceptance is not guaranteed.
Most Australian students live off-campus or at home.
A university accommodation office will assist in locating housing off-campus for those choosing this option or not accepted by a residential college. See the accommodation section of the Adelaide study abroad and exchange page for both residential college and off-campus housing information. Amherst students only. Only three students per year may be proposed. Room and board are paid by the student in Australia.
