Why make Res your new home

Fun fact: students who live on campus are more likely to achieve higher grades than their peers! But there’s a bunch of other good reasons to live on campus too:

But don’t just take our word for it! Here’s what Harshit Balhara, a resident at Waurn Ponds, has to say about life on campus. Harshit joined the Deakin Res community in his second year of uni for independence, convenience and to meet new people.

In my first year it was pretty hard to maintain a work-study-life balance as I didn’t have many people I could talk to and go out with … I’ve seen a major change ever since I moved here. I felt so annoyed at myself for missing this in first year and being a part of such an amazing community. One should definitely try Res and get the experience at least once.
