There are five residential colleges affiliated with UWA. Some of them have relations to certain churches, but applications are considered irrespective of religion. Four of the colleges are co-educational.

• Currie Hall
• Trinity
• St Catherine's College
• St Thomas More College
• St George's College

The colleges are in parkland settings across the road from the university, just ten minutes from the city centre, and fifteen minutes from the beach.

All colleges offer a caring and secure environment. Staff are friendly and willing to help whenever and wherever possible. Students are provided with their own furnished study-bedrooms. Nutritious meals are provided three times a day, seven days a week and there is academic support through formal tutorials and individual help from resident tutors.

Facilities and catering services are available for workshops, functions, meetings and conferences. Accommodation is available for conference delegates during the student vacation period and guest accommodation is available during the year.

The University's Housing Service can provide information on other accommodation options for students.
