Student accommodation for Monash Caulfield students in Caulfield East

Where do Monash Caulfield students live?

Caulfield campus has no residences of its own, so students spread out. Here is how the options stack up.

Is there accommodation on Caulfield campus?

No. Monash does not run residences at Caulfield. Its on-campus rooms are at Clayton and Peninsula. Caulfield students can apply for Clayton and use the free intercampus shuttle with a Monash card. Others rent privately or book a student property.

Rooms on our Monash Caulfield page

Browse student rooms near Monash Caulfield on our campus page. Nearly all of them sit in the CBD and Carlton, which means a train or tram commute in exchange for city shops and part-time work on your doorstep.

Is Clayton a good base for Caulfield?

Not always. Students on r/Monash say there is no official Monash accommodation at Caulfield, and that Clayton rooms leave you far from the shuttle and daily life. Most suggest living around Caulfield itself, or near a train line into campus.

Which suburbs are closest to Caulfield campus?

Monash lists Caulfield, Caulfield North, Carnegie, Malvern East, Glen Huntly and Murrumbeena among the closest suburbs. These areas are mostly private rentals and share houses. Purpose-built student properties are far more common in the city and Carlton.

Can city students reach Caulfield easily?

Yes, the links are strong. Frankston, Cranbourne and Pakenham line trains all stop at Caulfield station, opposite the campus. Route 3 trams also run between Caulfield and the city along Swanston Street. Check your nearest stop before you sign.

Monash help with finding a rental

Monash has private rental pages with advice on scams, bonds and condition reports. Monash Connect can give you a letter that proves your enrolment, which agents often ask for. Use both before you apply for a room near campus.

How do you get to Monash Caulfield by train and tram?

Caulfield campus sits beside a train station and a tram stop. Here is how to use them.

Which trains stop at Caulfield station?

Frankston, Cranbourne and Pakenham line trains all stop at Caulfield station. Frankston trains run via the City Loop, while Cranbourne and Pakenham trains run through the Metro Tunnel. The station sits directly opposite the campus, so the walk to class is short.

Route 3 tram into the city

Route 3 stops at Caulfield Railway Station and Derby Road, right by campus. It runs into the city along Swanston Street, so properties near Swanston Street have a direct tram home. It also gives you a second way in when trains are disrupted.

Free shuttle between Monash campuses

Monash runs a free intercampus shuttle bus linking Caulfield, Clayton and Peninsula for students with a valid Monash card. It helps if you live at a Clayton residence or take some classes there. Check the Monash site for stops before your first week.

Stations near Carnegie and Glen Huntly

Carnegie and Murrumbeena sit on the same Cranbourne and Pakenham line as Caulfield, while Glen Huntly is on the Frankston line. Renting near one of these stations keeps your trip to campus short if you choose a private room or share house.

Is Malvern East close to campus?

Yes. Malvern East borders the campus area, and route 3 trams run out to East Malvern. Malvern station is also nearby. The suburb is leafy and quiet, with mostly private rentals and few purpose-built student properties, so budget for furniture.

Where in the city connects best?

Usually near Flinders Street, Melbourne Central or Swanston Street. Frankston trains loop through the city, including Melbourne Central and Flinders Street, and route 3 runs along Swanston Street. A property near either gives you one trip to Caulfield.

Why bills matter near Caulfield

Share houses around Caulfield and Malvern usually split power, gas and internet between housemates. Properties on this page often fold those costs, plus furniture and wifi, into the weekly rent. Ask each property exactly what is covered before you sign anything.

Inspect before you pay anything

Monash advises students to inspect a private rental in person before paying or signing. Agents cannot charge you just to view a place. If something feels wrong, check the agent on the public register of licensed estate agents in Victoria first.

Is renting near Caulfield cheaper than the city?

Not always. A room in a share house near Caulfield can look cheaper, but you often pay bills on top and may need to furnish it. A city property usually bundles bills and furniture into one weekly price, which is easier to budget.
