Leaving home is a big step. Find your perfect flat or room with the help of the University of Otago Student Accommodation Centre
Otago is famous for its residential college communities. We have 15 diverse colleges catering mostly for first-year students.
Flatting is also an important part of university life, offering both responsibility and independence. Dunedin has a wide range of rental accommodation from historic houses to multi-unit, purpose-built complexes.
The Student Accommodation Centre's accommodation advisers are available to talk to you Monday to Friday 8:30am – 5:00pm, or you can talk to a schools' liaison officer.
