Housing for students
Approximately 2,850 University of Ottawa students have the privilege of living on campus in an engaging and intellectually stimulating multicultural environment. All located on our main downtown campus, our residences are within walking distance of classrooms, labs, libraries, cafeterias and food outlets, sports complexes and University services. The University is located five minutes away from the ByWard Market and downtown Ottawa.
First-time in-coming students normally reside in one of our four conventional residences offering furnished single and double rooms, telephone and free access to the Internet, common lounges, kitchens, bathrooms and laundry facilities on all floors.
The information required to reserve a place will be sent with the admission offer. Convenient meal plans are available to all students.
