Non-local Students (admitted in AY 2024/25 or before)
Starting from the 2016/2017 academic year, the university implemented the N-1 residence policy for non-local students. This means that for non-local students who enrolled in programmes for three years or above, they must participate in the selection exercise for hostel at the fourth year. Whether they are assigned to a hostel place depends on their hostel points.
Non-local Students (admitted in AY 2025/26 or after)
To align with university policy and balance hostel arrangements between local and non-local students, starting from the 2025/2026 academic year (and for non-local students admitted thereafter), the university implements the N-2 residence policy. Under this policy, non-local students who enrolled in programmes for three years or above will need to participate in the selection exercise for hostel at the third year. Whether they are assigned to a hostel place depends on their hostel points.
