Student accommodation
On-campus residences at Mbombela and Siyabuswa, plus accredited private accommodation for students who aren’t placed on campus.
On-campus accommodation
Both campuses offer residence accommodation, applied for as part of your online application on iEnabler (“Add New Residence Application”). Academic admission does not guarantee a residence place — apply early and confirm your status through the Student Housing office.
Accredited private accommodation
UMP maintains a list of accredited private accommodation providers near both campuses for students who are not placed in a university residence. Contact Student Housing for the current accredited list.
Living and learning
Residence life at UMP is built around the university’s values, with Wi-Fi access, house committees, and a programme of residence events run through the Student Life division. Reach the Student Housing office through the general switchboard for placement queries, move-in dates and residence fees.
Applying for residence
Residence applications are made as part of your academic application on iEnabler, not separately.
