Accommodation

NUIM has several on-campus residence halls within a five minute walk of lecture theatres, the library, sports and recreational facilities. There are 890 beds on campus, all of which are operated directly by the university and from which we guarantee all new international students accommodation. The apartments are secure and there are staff on call at any time of the day or night.

The University’s Residence Office coordinates the on-campus accommodation application process. International students are advised to apply for campus accommodation early. Applications are made online via the Residence Office website. Please see the Residence Office website for current on-campus rates or email for more information. 

The Residence Office also maintains a database of off-campus accommodation, including houses, house-shares and accommodation in a family home. If you choose to live in private rented accommodation, rents range from approximately €70 to €100 per week. Many housing estates surround Maynooth town and the University is within walking distance of all estates.

It is the students’ responsibility to arrange accommodation, whether applying for on-campus or looking for off-campus accommodation. The Residence Office would be the main point of contact for accommodation queries.

Please find all information on the Residence Office website.
