Discovering a sense of belonging at an institution is a crucial part of the university experience for a student. Unlocking this sense of identity and belonging can lead to significant positive changes for the students and their educational space.
The Department of Housing and Residence Affairs on the Qwaqwa Campus understands the extent to which residence life shapes the quality of students who exit the institution’s doors and is, therefore, intentional in its endeavour to create a healthy environment for students to thrive. Each residence has its history, traditions, and unique flair, but they all come together to give you a memorable campus experience.
