UCC Campus Accommodation offers several different residencies near the main UCC campus. These residences are owned and managed by UCC, and are specifically designed for student life, and offer security as well as reception service.

The University is situated in a pleasant residential area where there is a wide variety of other housing options to suit individuals or groups. Rents vary according to size, location, distance from the University, and facilities. 

Please see http://accommodation.ucc.ie for property search. We strongly recommend that students book their accommodation early before arriving in Ireland to ensure your needs are met.

What is the Residential Life Office?

The Residential Life Office is fully committed to the enhancement of the Student Experience in University College Cork. The goal is to provide a supportive community environment in which to live, learn and thrive. This is achieved through creative programmes within the residential setting that emphasise student engagement, community building and student leadership. UCC Student’s Union, UCC Societies Executive, UCC Clubs Executive, and Peer Assisted Student Support co-operate with the Residential Life Officer to provide a range of opportunities for students to meet, get involved, make friends and form study groups. It is hoped that this will enable students to make a successful transition to University life at UCC. 

Fostering Positive Community Relationships

Another aspect of the Residential Life Office is the building of positive community relationships with neighbourhood groups and An Gardaí Siochána. 

Residential Issues 

Students can seek advice in relation to residential complaints by emailing the Residential Life Office, residentiallife@ucc.ie. Queries will be handled by the Residential Life Officer or referred to a more appropriate service.
