Located across the road from a patrolled beach at Fairy Meadow, Campus East is UOW’s only student residence that offers both catered and self-catered accommodation options. Providing a homely and neighbourly vibe with plenty of green-space for residents, Campus East offers secure single, 2, 3 or 5-bedroom furnished units.
When you move to a new town for uni it’s good to know there will be a ready-made community of friendly students and staff waiting to welcome you. Campus East is focused on people and place. The large garden areas play an important role in making Campus East residents feel ‘at home’ and in building a strong sense of community. Some of our students say it has that small town feeling, and that it’s the perfect place to come home to.
While residents of Campus East can choose to live in a catered or self-catered room, Campus East Café is used by all students and is definitely the hub of the community. Catered rooms include 14 healthy and delicious meals weekly, with dietary requirements catered for including health, religious and lifestyle. Find out more about Campus East Café.

There are many great positives to Campus East’s location, here are some of them:
When you live on campus as a UOW student we want you to feel safe, secure and supported. Wellbeing support is available 24/7 from UOW support services. Access to the main buildings, communal spaces and student rooms is only available when using an individually coded fob-key. Every unit and apartment can only be accessed by the resident or residents living there, using their individual fob-key, and every bedroom in shared units has a coded door lock, that can only be opened by the key-holder.
Catered rooms come in configurations of 2, 3 or 5 bedroom units. The inclusions in these rooms may differ slightly from building to building, however all contain a bed, desk, chair and shared bathroom facilities.
Residents in catered units will enjoy 14 meals weekly at the Campus East Cafeteria which caters for a wide range of dietary needs. Our catered units have no cooking facilities and for fire safety reasons, no cooking is permitted within these units. Catered units have a common area for residents with a fridge and storage space. There are also two common kitchens for catered residents to use if needed.
