Accommodation developments

We currently offer 4,400 beds in both catered and self-catered residences at the University of Auckland. Read more about our upcoming developments as we work towards accommodating 7,500 students by 2026.

O'Rorke Hall

Since 2022, O'Rorke Hall has been gradually going through a full floor-by-floor refurbishment of all bedrooms, bathrooms and common rooms. Our well-loved hall is receiving the modern touch needed to align the quality of its living spaces with our other first-year offerings.

In summer 2024, O'Rorke Hall's refurbishment continues! With work being done to update and renovate the entry, reception, dining, games room, media room and music room. The spaces will be ready in time for 2025 residents to move in mid-February.

Check out a preview of how this space will look in the gallery below.

Upcoming refurbishment work:

Communal Study room (completed by April 2025)
Laundry (mid-semester 2025)
Courtyard (academic year 2025)

University Hall Apartments

We are excited to announce that in Semester Two 2025, UHA will be open once again after a long awaited refurbishment of the entire apartment complex. This 106 bed residence has been closed for the past few years, allowing us to make some big changes to the layouts of the apartments and bring in fresh new bedrooms, bathrooms, lounges, kitchens and common spaces.

Applications for the apartments will be open in April 2025.
