Live With Us

Submit your online application by 11:59 PM (AEST) on Sunday, the 24th of May!



Our community comprises of a broad range of student residents, from first year undergraduates to final year PhD candidates! Our residents come from all walks of life, and from cities and towns across Australia and the world. We’re looking for new residents, so if you’re interested in moving in, read the FAQs and submit an application using the links below.

New residents are chosen based on several factors, as we love to live with a diverse range of people.

As a ‘co-oper’ you’ll become part of a worldwide movement of student housing co-operatives. We are very different to other student residences! Co-operative living means contributing for the benefit of all residents, and being part of a community where we are constantly learning from each other. You are expected to spend about 3 hours each week on Co-op-related activities, whether this be market shopping, home decorating, cooking or gardening or any of the other eclectic things we do.

Applicants must stay for at least one semester.

The first stage of applying is to fill is to click the ‘Apply Now’ button which will take you to our online application form. Fill it in carefully and answer all of the questions. If we think you have Co-op potential based on your written online application, you will be invited to the second stage of the application process, which is coming over for a dinner to hang out with our current residents. The applications coordinator will be in touch with you throughout the applications process.

Email our Applications Coordinator (contact@csh.coop) for more information.

Submit your written application below. You must submit a written application by 11:59pm Sunday, the 24th of May. Please answer all the questions and consider your answers carefully (the application form doesn’t save your progress, so please make sure you have a stable connection or it can be good to draft your responses on a separate document). We take your responses seriously and base our decision to progress to the next stage based on your answers. We will let you know if you have an interview and send you a Zoom link. After your interview it may take 2-3 weeks for us to process all applicants and let you know if you have been accepted to live with us.
