Housing:
Southern Cross University is able to accommodate all study abroad students in on-campus residential accommodation. This provides you with the opportunity to live with Australian and international students and make life long friendships with them.
The accommodation is in 5-6 bedroom apartments with each student having a single bedroom and sharing kitchen, living and bathroom areas with their flat mates. Students are required to cook their own meals and no meal plans are available.
If you prefer to live off-campus in apartments or with Australian families you will be assisted to make suitable arrangements. However, you should note that it is sometimes difficult to arrange for short-term off-campus accommodation for students only staying for one semester.
Orientation:
An orientation program specifically designed for study abroad and exchange students is conducted during the week prior to the commencement of classes in both semesters. Issued covered including settling in to life in Lismore, culture shock, accommodation, health insurance, clubs and societies, email access, study skills, weekend trips, and social events.
