On-campus undergraduate and graduate housing is available for students. In graduate housing, due to a limited number of spaces, priority is given to new research students. Graduate Halls 1 and 2 are reserved for postgraduate students to stay on-campus. Due to high demand and limited places in these residences, NTU doesn't guarantee a spot.
