On-Campus Accommodation for Incoming Students who have entered through the HEAR Pathway
UCD Residences offers a variety of room options across several residence villages on the Belfield and Blackrock campuses.
Prices vary depending on the facilities offered in each of the residences, for example private bathroom or shared bathroom options, but all bedrooms are single occupancy, i.e. one person per bedroom.
"Apartment - Shared Bathroom" accommodation options are available on the Belfield campus and are priced at the starting point of room rates. These apartments consist of four bedrooms and two bathrooms.
Students entering UCD through the HEAR pathway are offered these "Apartment - Shared Bathroom" rooms as a first option. Priority is given to first year students.
Click Belgrove Residence (Apartment - Shared Bathroom) and Merville Residence (Apartment - Shared Bathroom) for more information on "Apartment - Shared Bathroom" rooms.
Please note there is no discounted rate for students entering through the HEAR pathway so students and families should be aware of the fees before accepting a room.
