For Current Students

Successful applicants should take note of the terms and conditions and must accept the offer by submitting the acceptance letter and paying a full accommodation fee and deposit by 14 May 2024.  Failure to do so will result in forfeiture of the offer.

Roommate matching is based on the survey included in the acceptance letter.  SAO will make every effort to match students with similar lifestyle habits (sleep schedules, noise tolerance, etc.) 

Students can also nominate a same-sex roommate by specifying his/ her name and students number in the survey if both have accepted the same OCA offer.  Such roommate requests must be mutual.

SAO will strive to meet requests whenever possible; however, there is no guarantee that preferred/ nominated roommates will be paired.

If someone has rejected the offer, you will be notified by phone and email by 28 June 2024 when a bed place is available.

1. Application approval is subject to the availability of bed places. Submission of the application form does not guarantee an offer.

4. The assignment of bed places for successful applicants will be at the sole discretion of SAO.
5. Residents must be active full-time undergraduate non-local students in AY2024/25.  If a resident becomes inactive/ suspended in student status or he/she has withdrawn from his/her studies during tenancy period, he/she will not be eligible to reside in OCA and should move out immediately.  However, all fees paid except deposit, after deducting any cost incurred, will not be refunded.
6. Residents shall commit to staying at the designated OCA for the whole tenancy period as stated in the application form.
7. All OCAs have laid down rules and regulations to ensure the health and safety of the residents and all successful applicants will have to agree that they understand the expectation and commit to complying when they accept the offer.
