ACCOMMODATION, RESIDENCE LIFE AND CATERING
The Tshwane University of Technology (TUT) is the largest residential educational
institution in South Africa. The quality of our residences is our rst priority.
We offer basic, quality accommodation to students at affordable rates. Being
accommodated should not be regarded as a right, but rather a privilege and
residents should respect their environment, facilities and fellow residents in
order to ensure that facilities remain up to standard. Vandalism is regarded
as a serious act of misconduct and a resident will face immediate expulsion if
found guilty of vandalism. Each residence provides basic facilities, but certain
specialised facilities are unique to specic residences.
Residing in our residences means much more than just eating and sleeping. It
means meeting new people and interacting with others of diverse backgrounds,
interests and lifestyles. It means learning in an environment conducive to
study, where academic assistance is readily available. It means stepping into
your new role as a university student with condence.
