Here are some of the more commonly asked questions regarding accommodation at STUCCO. If you have a question that is not answered in this list then please do not hesitate to contact STUCCO.

Could you tell me if I could get a room within a certain time period - say the next few weeks?
STUCCO does not maintain a waiting list so there is no guarantee of when you might be able to move in. When a vacancy arises, you will be notified and asked to come for an interview. The members of the unit will then decide based on this interview whether you are the right person for that unit.

What happens to STUCCO in the holidays?
STUCCO is not like a college - you do not have to vacate your room during the break. We still have meetings and it is a good idea to come to these if you want to accumulate your 3 meetings before Uni starts.

Could you tell me a little more about the rooms?
Each room comes unfurnished, so you will have to provide all your own furniture. Details about the rest of the house is is described on the Accommodation & Location page.

I'm not studying at the University of Sydney this year, but I will be next year. Can I start applying now?
Yes. You are welcome to come to meetings, although you will not be eligible to move in until the vacation before the semester when your course starts.

Do you accept international students as members?
Unfortunately, we are unable to accept international students.

I will be moving to Sydney from overseas to start a course at the University of Sydney. Is it possible to apply for accommodation in advance before I arrive?
No. The admissions process requires applicants to attend 3 meetings and an interview in person in Sydney. Regrettably, we cannot offer a position to anyone who has not done this. You are welcome to begin applying as soon as you arrive in Sydney.

What other accommodation is available for students in Sydney?
Check the Accommodation Service at Sydney Uni. International students might like to visit the International Office.

All right you have convinced me that I want to be a part of STUCCO. What now?
Before you are eligible to move in you will need to have accumulated 3 meetings, so find out when the next round are here. You will also need to pick up an application form, which can do either at your next meeting or feel free to drop round any time.
