Accommodation

It is recommended that you investigate the option of living on-campus as there are benefits to living and learning in a policing environment. However, you need to be prepared that there may be circumstances where living on campus is not an option. Alternative arrangements can then be sourced through private accommodation available in the City of Goulburn, details of which can be obtained by contacting Campus Management 02 4828 8722.

The NSW Police College’s residential capacity for Associate Degree in Policing Practice students is limited, and can sometimes fall short of anticipated enrolments.
