Information on how to apply for a place in on-campus accommodation in 2013-2014 will be available on this page shortly.

If you wish to apply for campus accommodation you need to fill out our online application form. Simply complete the fields and follow the instructions on the page.
You must enter your CAO/student number.
Confirmation of Your Application

Waiting on a CAO offer of a place in first year in NUI Maynooth?
All First Year applicants will receive an email from the Residence Office on Tuesday 21st August 2012 informing them of the outcome of the First Random Selection Draw. Further details are at http://residence.nuim.ie/index.shtml
How will I know if I have been offered a place on campus?
You will receive an offer of a place by e-mail. This e-mail will give you directions on how to pay online for your room. In the e-mail there will be a reference number which you will be required to type in when you are paying online.
How do I pay online?
You can pay online using a credit card. If you do not have a credit card please contact your bank about pre-paid credit cards which can also be used.
Do I sign an agreement?
Yes you will sign a resident's agreement. We will email the agreement, medical form, bank details form and welcome letter to you. You will need to sign a copy of the agreement and return to the Residence Office, together with the medical form and bank details form.
Residence Office Campus Allocations Policy
Places on campus are offered randomly.
40% of all places are reserved for first year students (345 places). Entrance Scholars who apply for campus are automatically allocated a place. The usual rent applies. Places are also allocated to First Year Sports Scholars. All other first year places are allocated randomly (with the exception of places allocated to students who have very specific mobility issues, or who are wheelchair users, or who have very specific medical or personal circumstances who require accessible accommodation).
Each year there is an allocation for international students. In general this number is 130 places but this is subject to change depending on the numbers of non-EU international students requiring accommodation.
Current students (those already in NUI Maynooth) can apply for campus in semester 2 each year. In general, rooms are allocated on a random basis, however a person's contribution to university life may be taken into account in the allocations process. For example some sports scholars may receive campus accommodation in second year as well as first year. A student who has made a significant contribution to the extra curricular life of the University may also be taken into consideration. There are 387 places allocated for continuing students (undergraduate and postgraduate).
Students should be aware that they have no guarantee of being allocated campus accommodation from one year to the next.
The behaviour of residents during the academic year is taken into account in the room allocations for the following year. Students should be aware that the list of current students who will have campus issued in April each year ( for the next academic year) is a provisional one and is not fully confirmed until mid June each year.
