Finding comfortable and convenient housing is an important part of preparing for your studies in Curaçao. Avalon University School of Medicine provides students with access to both on-campus housing and information about off-campus housing options. Housing availability is limited, and students are encouraged to make their arrangements as early as possible.

On-Campus Housing

For students who value convenience and easy access to campus, Avalon University offers on-campus housing located directly in front of the university campus, providing easy access to classes, academic facilities, and campus activities.

Housing is available on a first-come, first-served basis, and students are encouraged to make their housing arrangements early.
Room Options

Students may choose between single or double occupancy, subject to availability.

On-campus housing includes:

  • Rooms with a kitchenette for light meal preparation
  • Rooms without a kitchenette

The kitchenettes are intended for light meal preparation and reheating rather than full cooking. They are equipped with basic appliances, including an induction stove and either a microwave or oven.

There is no communal kitchen within the residence. Students who prefer prepared meals, as well as those staying in rooms without a kitchenette, may arrange meals through a meal plan provider, on-campus restaurants, or local catering services.

The Island Campus Secretary or Campus Director can provide information and contact details for available catering services upon your arrival. Students can then select the meal option that best suits their individual preferences, dietary requirements, and budget.

A Comfortable Student Living Environment

Avalon’s on-campus housing is designed to provide students with a comfortable and convenient environment where they can live, study, and relax while completing their medical education. Common areas are cleaned once each week, and trash collection is provided daily. Students are responsible for maintaining the cleanliness of their individual rooms. To help maintain an environment conducive to study and rest, residents are asked to keep noise to a reasonable level, particularly during quiet hours from 10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.

Parking is available in the WTC general parking area.

Guests & Visitors

Students are welcome to have visitors, provided they respect the comfort and privacy of fellow residents. Overnight guests require prior approval from the dorm manager, Mr. Robert Zeilinski, and residents are responsible for ensuring that their guests follow the residence guidelines.

Safety & Student Comfort

The residence is a smoke-free indoor environment, and standard health, fire safety, and university student conduct policies apply throughout the property. These guidelines are designed to maintain a safe, respectful, and comfortable residential environment for all students. If a maintenance issue occurs, students can report it to the designated personnel for assistance. Residents are also responsible for their room keys or access cards during their stay.

Housing Agreement

Avalon University leases the on-campus accommodations from the property owner and makes them available to Avalon students. Students choosing on-campus housing will:

  • Sign a housing lease prepared by Avalon University
  • Review and sign the applicable On-Campus Housing Rules and Regulations
  • Complete a room inspection as part of the check-in and check-out process

The room inspection documents the condition of the accommodation at check-in (when you arrive on the island) and at check-out (when you vacate your room) and forms part of the security deposit process.

Room type, occupancy preference, and kitchenette availability are subject to availability. Students interested in on-campus housing are encouraged to make their reservation early through the admissions office.
