Accommodation:
For
students hoping to live on-campus in Townsville applications are already open.
There is usually very high demand for on-campus accommodation, and JCU cannot
guarantee that a place will be available for all students who apply. We
strongly advise that students apply early to avoid disappointment. To apply
students will need to pay a one off non-refundable application fee of $55,
additionally they will need 2 written references (character) and school report.
