Accommodation

ANI’s Student Support Officer can provide information, advice, and guidance on additional types of accommodation services available to students. It is recommended that your accommodation arrangements be made prior to your arrival in Australia. A brief description of some of the options is listed below:

Australian National Institute Residence

Australian National Institute offers student residential accommodation within walking distance from the campus.

The residence houses up to 150 students in mainly shared accommodation, however a number of individual rooms are available. It is equipped with the latest facilities to make your stay comfortable.

Private Leasing / Rentals

The rental market offers a wide range of housing options.

Signing a lease on your own for an apartment, flat or house can offer you an independent lifestyle and privacy.

It can however be very expensive if you choose to live by yourself, as you are solely responsible for the rental payments plus the connection fees for utilities and then ongoing bills.

It can be useful to familiarise yourself with the average price of properties around the Institute.
