Our application process

When to apply

Most students will apply to us during November and December of each year for residency for the following year. We encourage you to put in your application even before you are accepted into University/TAFE to make sure that you are on our register and we can send you the appropriate documentation.  If you miss out on a University/TAFE position just let us know and we will remove you from our register.

We encourage you to take the time to look around our campus or speak to people you know who have already been here so you can get a better idea about what life is like and what we can offer you.

How to apply

Download the application form and checklist and return the forms and other required information to our Boarding House Manager. All applications will be acknowledged on receipt.

What happens next?

First offers of rooms will be made in late November/early December. At this time the following forms will be sent to you:

  • Acceptance Form
  • Residential Tenancy Agreement
  • Guardian Indemnity
  • Directory Permission

To accept our offer, the intending resident is asked to return the above forms with the bond payment to secure a room for the following year.  If we do not receive the bond payment the room will not be held.

Acceptance by ALC

Once all the complete paperwork has been received and approved we will send you a confirmation letter stating the date that the college is open to receive arrivals.
