How do I get accommodation on campus at UENR? On-campus hostel accommodations are primarily reserved for freshmen and are allocated on a first come, first served basis. You must follow the application process outlined on the UENR hostel portal (check the official UENR website for the current link, which is generally www.hostel.uenr.edu.gh).
How long do I have to pay after applying for a hostel room? You typically have five (5) working days to make your payment after successfully applying for accommodation. If you miss this deadline, you will lose your slot but may re-apply for any available rooms.
Can I change the room that has been assigned to me upon arrival? No, generally, the hostel management assigns rooms to students, and the rooms assigned cannot be changed upon arrival.
How much do I have to pay for accommodation? The prices for accommodation are subject to change. You should check the current fees on the official UENR hostel portal, which is typically www.hostel.uenr.edu.gh.
Which banks accept payments for the Residential Facility User Fees (RFUF)? RFUF should be paid into the UENR Hostel fees account at any branch of the following banks across the country:
- Fidelity Bank

What essential items should I bring along with me? A: You will need to bring personal items such as your pillow, bed sheet, and buckets.
