Application
If you have uploaded all the documentation and had your chat with one of the admissions team it takes less than a week for your application to be approved, pending availability.
Yes, students can request to room with a specific person when filling out the accommodation application. If no request is made, we will assign roommates based on gender, age, and lifestyle preferences to ensure compatibility.
The College offers accommodation for primarily undergraduate students. However, if you are under the age of 25 and are a postgraduate student, please send an enquiry to our admissions team – admissions@dlc.nsw.edu.au
If you cancel your application before the cut-off date (February 1 for Semester 1 arrivals) you are refunded what you have paid, minus $150.
If you cancel in February (for Semester 1 arrivals) but before move-in day, you are refunded what you have paid less $450. If you cancel on or after move-in day, this is considered breaking your contract.
If you cancel because you did not receive an offer to study from Macquarie University, you will receive a full refund.
Living at Dunmore Lang College
Move in day is jam packed with everything you need to get settled at Dunmore Lang College. We prefer if students arrive on the day, but if your circumstances don’t allow for this, please email our admissions team to discuss your options.
The College is fully catered and the fees include all meals. However, there are three kitchenettes throughout College if you occasionally would like to cook a meal.
You can choose the type of room you have at College, but if you are a first-year student we allocate individual rooms to reach a balance throughout College, based on a number of factors.
Returning students are able to request a floor preference and we try our best to allocate students their first choice.
You can submit a room change request form here.
You will receive a form via email from the Admissions team about your move-out date. Complete and return it by the due date to have the best chance of a room over the Recess break.
If you will be returning to College the next Semester you can store a small quantity of your belongings in the store room on your current floor. Your room will need to be completely vacated for any incoming occupant.
If you are vacating College (and not returning) you will need to take everything with you.
