Students Accommodation
The Rajarata University of Sri Lanka is a fully residential university,therefore all undergraduates, with the exception of students who live within 40 kilometers of the university, are provided hostel facilities during their entire study period, which is usually four years except for the students in the Faculty of Medicine and Allied Sciences.
The University has 22 halls of residences for undergraduates that can accommodate around 5000 students. There are 15 halls of residence for female students and 7 halls of residence for male students. In terms of location, there are 17 halls of residences in Mihintale Campus, with 5 of them located in Puliyankulama and Saliyapura, where the Facultyof Agriculture and the Faculty of Medicine and Allied Sciences are situated respectively. Despite having a significant number of residence halls, the Students Service Branch faces difficulties in allocating hotels facilities to students. When assigning hostel facilities, first-year students are usually prioritized. In addition to the halls of residence,the University periodically rents out outside housing facilities to meet the students’ housing needs.
