  • Accommodation applications must be fully completed and returned to the Accommodation Officer along with the CIT course acceptance letter before processing can begin. 

Rent

Rent is kept affordable to ensure student residences are available to most students. The accommodation fee includes room, electricity, water and heating.

Prior to commencing accommodation in residence, students must pay a term’s rent in advance or fortnightly payments can be arranged. Each student must also lodge a bond and pay the bond on signing an accommodation contract. This bond will be refunded to the student after vacating their room pending successful inspection.
