Why arriva is the Perfect Place to Rent for University Students in Sydney

For many students, studying requires a lot of your attention, time and effort, so you want the rest of your life outside of university hours to be supportive and fun, so you can focus on achieving your best in your coursework, and spending time with friends.

What you don’t want is:

• To live in an area of Sydney not well connected by bus or train, or too far to walk to get necessities like groceries.
• To overpay in rent in a “bad postcode” far from the CBD.
• To have to go back and forth wasting time dealing with a landlord who doesn’t do a very good job of handling any issues you may experience in your rental apartment.

arriva has many student tenants and that’s because our apartments offer:

• Excellent safety and security
• Convenient, highly desirable locations close to school and universities
• Great value
• Independence for students, without the chaos
• Well-managed and maintained residences

If you’re a student looking to rent close to The University of Sydney, The University of Technology, The University of Notre Dame, or another institution near the CBD and Inner West, then we have two excellent arriva locations for you to choose from.

1. Meet arriva Camperdown – 35 Missenden Road:

Located in the heart of Sydney’s Inner West, Camperdown is also touted as a student hotspot due to its close location to many leading universities and proximity to the RPA Hospital (ideal for nursing student and new graduate placements).
