The Handbook is your go to guide for living at University Hall. This has the policies and procedures of UniHall which all residents must abide by for a safe, comfortable and happy community. There is also information on your lease, how to log maintenance requests, your meal plan and who to contact when you need help. All residents are expected to read and understand the University Hall Handbook upon arrival and moving into the Hall.
At University Hall rent is paid fortnightly in advance. What this means is that the sum of the first two weeks of your lease must be paid in full prior to your move in date and you must continue to pay rent at the beginning of each fortnight until the end of your lease.
The preferred method of payment are BPAY and direct bank transfer. Every University Hall resident is assigned individual BPAY details, which are emailed to directly to you once your lease agreement has been signed.

You'll find you RA has a similar story to you as they have also moved away from home and transitioned into university life.
