Berwick Residential Application and Acceptance process

The following flow-chart outlines the process of applying and accepting an accommodation place at Berwick Residential. We hope this will assist prospective students in understanding the process that is followed once a New Residency application is received at Berwick Residential.

The student completes an Application form and sends the form to Berwick Residential together with two (2) passport size photos and the Application Registration Fee payment, as per the instructions on the form.

Berwick Residential receives the application and sends an acknowledgement email (on the same day) advising the student that the application has arrived, and when they should expect to receive an offer.  This is sent to the email address listed on the students’ application form.

Berwick Residential processes the application; allocates a room to the student and creates the Residential Offer documents.

Berwick Residential sends the Residential Offer by email to the student (the email address on the application form is used).

Student receives the offer on their email account.  Reads all of the documentation and considers the offer.  Students who have a multiple accommodation choice on their application need to notify Berwick Residential immediately if there is a change of preference in regard to their Monash University Offer.  Berwick Residential will not accept responsibility for a student missing out on accommodation due to a change of preference to their Monash University Academic Offer.

Student accepts the Residential Offer by printing the Residency Agreement, signing it and sending it back to Berwick Residential with the Building and Amenities Fee payment by the lapse date as stated in the offer documentation.

Berwick Residential receives the signed Residency Agreement and payment, and sends an acknowledgement email back to the student.

Berwick Residential processes documentation; receipts payment (receipt is on file for future collection), and finalises the room allocation.

Berwick Residential sends a final email to the student which includes details of the Arrivals process and the pre-arrival information Berwick Residential needs before the student arrives.

Berwick Residential receives the pre-arrival information and makes the final arrangements.

The student arrives, collects their room key and other information.  The student then meets the Residential Support Team, is shown to their room, given time to unpack and settle in, before being invited to meet other new and returning residents.

Note:
Allocations: Whilst every attempt will be made to place applicants as per their preference, this may not always be possible.

Moving in: Prior approval is required if you want to move in before the official move-in date stated on your Letter of Offer.
