Accommodation




Upon request, AG Mate Academy is able to arrange three different types of accommodation. Students can stay with an Australian family (Homestay). Staying with a Homestay family offers room, breakfast and dinner in the home of an Australian family, plus lunch Saturday and Sunday, for $AU190 per week. It is a good, safe alternative which we recommend to younger students or to those arriving in Sydney for the first time.

Some students prefer to be more independent and rent private rooms ($AU80-140) or share an apartment. Our notice board usually has messages from people looking for a person to share a house/apartment with.

If you want cheap backpacker-style accommodation while looking for a private room, we have two alternatives - one is newly renovated and within walking distance to the city - the other is across the Harbour Bridge.

For the arrangement of Accommodation, a Booking Fee of A$150 applies.
