You’re living on Western Sydney University Village - Bankstown, so you can get to class in minutes. Take a 10-minute bus ride to reach Bankside or Panania railway stations, where you can catch the express train to Sydney’s CBD. Alternatively, the UWS shuttle bus runs from campus to Revesby train station every few minutes.

When you get back home to UWS Village, head to the student lounge to catch up with friends. Play a game of pool or table tennis or just relax on the sofas and watch TV. Burn off some energy playing volleyball on the outdoor courts and follow the game up with a BBQ in the shaded outdoor area. You’ll soon get to know your neighbours because regular residents’ events make it easy to make new friends.

There’s free Wi-Fi throughout, so when you need to catch up with your studies you can sit at the fitted desk in your room or work with friends in the study room. The screen and projector come in handy when you’re preparing a presentation, and you can print out your work in the computer room.

When hunger strikes, prepare your favourite food in your fully fitted kitchen, or make a meal with friends in the shared kitchen area. Eat in comfort in the spacious dining area, then relax and watch TV in the living area.

The on-site laundries make it easy to keep your clothes clean, and the Resident Assistants are always available if you need any help or advice. Security is a top priority, so there’s CCTV, electronic card entry and security patrols for your peace of mind.
