All General Admission Process Location and Accommodation

Does NIDA provide on-campus accommodation for students

NIDA does not have on-campus accommodation for students, and students are responsible for arranging their own accommodation. However, although NIDA is not part of the University of New South Wales (UNSW), NIDA students can access the student accommodation at UNSW, which is located directly across from NIDA on Anzac Parade, Kensington, and has a number of on-campus residential colleges and self-catered apartments.

Where do NIDA students typically look for rental accommodation

Students tend to look for accommodation in suburbs near NIDA such as Randwick, Kensington, Kingsford, Eastlakes, Zetland, Waterloo, Rosebery, Redfern, Centennial Park, Coogee and Maroubra or, slightly further away, in Newtown, Surry Hills, Darlinghurst, or Paddington, because of proximity and transport services. Rental accommodation in the immediate vicinity of NIDA is not usually easy to find at short notice, can be expensive and landlords usually require a minimum six month lease to be signed.
