Due to the heavy demand for on-campus accommodation, applicants must be registered full time students and priority is given as follows:
- Undergraduate students in Year 1 of their programme – Application deadline is by end of first week of January.
- Continuing regional undergraduate students who applied by the deadline – Application deadline is 9 December for the following year.
- Continuing Fiji undergraduate students who applied by the deadline – Application deadline is 9 December for the following year
- Postgraduate Students – Application deadline is 9 December for the following year.
For Fiji students, returning residents will have priority over first time applicants. Both categories will be prioritized as follows:
-
- Students from outside Viti Levu
- Students from Rakiraki/Tavua/Vatukoula/Ba/Lautoka/Nadi
- Students from outside the greater Suva area
Applicants will be informed of their application status by email from mid-January each year.
