Discover Student Accommodation in Perth

Finding the right place to live is a big part of your student experience — and Perth offers accommodation options to suit different lifestyles, budgets and stages of independence.

Through our Discover Perth Through Students’ Eyes campaign supported by StudyPerth, ECC students explore three popular choices: on‑campus accommodation, shared house, and city dormitories (purpose‑built student accommodation). Each option offers something unique, whether you value convenience, community, independence or affordability.

ECC students have access to on‑campus accommodation at ECU’s Joondalup Student Village, featuring modern, fully furnished apartments just minutes from classes. These villages offer shared living spaces, study zones and social activities, creating a supportive and connected student environment.

If you enjoy shared living, house‑sharing is a popular option that helps you manage costs while building independence. Living with other students allows you to share rent and bills, make new friends, and experience everyday life in Perth together.

For students seeking independence and a city lifestyle, purpose‑built student accommodation in Perth’s CBD offers modern facilities close to transport, entertainment and part‑time work.

No matter which option you choose, ECC’s student support services are available to guide you through accommodation choices and help you settle confidently into life in Perth.
