Living near UWA in Crawley: College Row, Crawley Village and Perth City Rooms
What will a week near UWA cost you?
Three kinds of housing serve UWA students, and each one prices differently. Here is what the weekly figure covers in each case.
Where do weekly rents start here?
From around A$295 a week. That is the lowest weekly rent among the Perth properties shown on this Crawley page, all of which sit a bus ride from UWA. Larger rooms and studios cost more, so open a property for its rates.
What do UWA college fees include?
Meals, utilities and internet, at all five colleges. UWA's College Row table also ticks an academic programme, a residential life programme and scholarships for each one. A college fee therefore replaces rent, power, wifi and most of your food budget.
Crawley Village rent leaves out bills
UWA marks utilities and internet at Crawley Village as self sourced, and meals as not included. Residents arrange and pay for power and wifi on top of rent, so add those costs before you set it against a college fee.
College leases can be shorter than a year
UWA shows a different lease range for every college. Some agreements cover little more than one semester, and one college offers a full year. Multiply the weekly fee by the weeks you will stay to see the true annual cost.
Is the bus from the city free?
One is. UWA describes the Purple CAT as a free bus between Elizabeth Quay Bus Station and the UWA Business School. Other routes charge a normal Transperth fare, and our Perth student accommodation page explains the student concession.
Do WA bond rules cover college rooms?
Not always. Consumer Protection says the Residential Tenancies Act generally excludes colleges and housing run by education institutions, unless a for profit provider runs it. Ask what you pay upfront, who holds it and how it is refunded before you sign.
What housing does UWA run in Crawley itself?
UWA sits beside five residential colleges and owns housing across the suburb. Start here if a short walk to lectures matters most.
What is Crawley Village at UWA?
UWA's own housing in the suburb, offered to PhD students and their families. The university lists studios, apartments with one to three bedrooms and houses, on leases of six to twelve months. Undergraduates should look at College Row or private rooms instead.
Five colleges along College Row
St Catherine's, St George's, St Thomas More, Trinity Residential College and University Hall sit a short walk from the Crawley campus, UWA says. St George's is the smallest. St Thomas More houses close to four hundred students, so pick by community size.
Can couples or families live in UWA housing?
Yes, at Crawley Village. UWA marks it as couple and family friendly and offers it to PhD students. Homes there come partially furnished, so budget for the furniture and kitchen items you still need to buy when you arrive.
How do you apply for UWA housing?
Through one online portal. UWA's Live at UWA page carries an apply link for the residential colleges and another for Crawley Village, and both lead to the same StarRez system. Read each college's lease terms first, because they differ.
The UWA campus on Matilda Bay
UWA gives its address as 35 Stirling Highway, Crawley, on Matilda Bay and about five kilometres from the Perth CBD. Use that to judge any address you are offered. Nedlands sits next door, while the city centre means a bus ride.
Private rooms for UWA students
Our UWA student accommodation page gathers the private Perth properties we offer to UWA students, with room types and weekly rents. Read it alongside the university's own colleges, since private rent and a catered college fee cover different things.
How do you reach UWA from a room in the city?
None of the properties shown here sit inside Crawley. Most are in central Perth, so the daily trip to campus is the thing to plan.
Are any of these properties in Crawley?
No. They sit in central Perth around Stirling Street, in Bentley beside Curtin University and at Murdoch University. Every one is a bus or train ride from the UWA campus, so the route matters as much as the room.
Which bus runs from the city to UWA?
Route 950. Transperth runs it from Morley along Beaufort Street and Wellington Street, through Elizabeth Quay Bus Station and past UWA to the QEII Medical Centre. Transperth classes it as a high frequency service, and UWA says it supports the route.
Most buses stop on Stirling Highway
UWA says nearly all its bus services use stops on Stirling Highway, at the northern end of campus. Route 97 from Subiaco is the exception, stopping at Fairway and Princess Road and ending on Hackett Drive. The Purple CAT runs to the Business School.
Is there a train station at UWA?
No. Buses link the campus with the rail network instead. Transperth runs route 96 from Leederville Station and route 97 from Subiaco Station to UWA South on weekdays, and UWA adds a free shuttle from Claremont station at peak times.
Can city residents park at UWA?
No, not on a student parking account. UWA excludes students who live in restricted postcodes, and its list includes Perth City, Nedlands and Crawley. Plan on the bus or a bike if you rent a room in any of those places.
Bentley and Murdoch rooms for UWA
The Bentley properties beside Curtin and the Murdoch University property sit south of the Swan River, far from Crawley. They suit Curtin University and Murdoch University students. For UWA, pick from the central Perth addresses on this page.
What is Crawley like for a student?
Crawley is a small riverside suburb built around the university. These are the practical things on its doorstep.
Matilda Bay and Kings Park nearby
The Swan River runs along the edge of campus, with foreshore paths at Matilda Bay for a walk or run between classes. Kings Park sits next to Crawley on the city side. Choose this area if outdoor space matters more than nightlife.
Shops near Crawley for everyday needs
UWA names Broadway Fair and Claremont Quarter as the shopping centres near Crawley Village. Between them you can cover groceries, a pharmacy and everyday shopping. Check the walk from any address to Broadway Fair if you will live without a car.
Nedlands and QEII for health students
Nedlands borders Crawley and shares Stirling Highway with the campus. The QEII Medical Centre lies just beyond, where route 950 ends and the Purple CAT calls on its way to UWA. Students with hospital placements can live between the two.
Bike cages and showers on campus
UWA provides showers, lockers and change rooms for staff and students at several buildings, plus secure bike cages that are free once you register. It also keeps inner campus roads as pedestrian and cyclist zones, so riding from Nedlands is practical.
Studio or shared flat for UWA?
A shared flat, if cost comes first. A studio suits postgraduates and anyone who studies late, since the kitchen and bathroom are yours alone. See the studio filter, en-suite rooms or shared bathroom rooms on this page.
Living in Nedlands or Claremont instead
Transperth lists route 995 from Elizabeth Quay Bus Station to Claremont Station via UWA and Stirling Highway, and route 996 between Fremantle Station and Stirling Station via Claremont and UWA. A private room near either route keeps the campus one bus away.
