University of Adelaide

The university unfortunately does not offer campus living. It does have affiliate college residences, but these are more expensive. If budget is your primary concern, you can save more if you settle in international hostels, apartments or homestays located in the suburbs.

Adelaide has decent student housing, but most Australians live at home or rent their own flat, even in their first year of studies, so there aren't many Aussies living in the dorms (but there are some). Those Americans who stayed in University housing had fun, but ended up hanging out with mostly Americans, which isn't my idea of studying abroad. But Adelaide University helps students with finding their own accomodation, there's a whole office dedicated to it, so if you arrive in Adelaide with nowhere to stay, it's no problem finding other people who want to share a flat too.

All in all it was ok, but too far away from campus!

good facilities assisting you to find a unit quickly
