Episode Details

Students at Curtin University’s Kalgoorlie campus are facing a housing crisis, with hundreds forced to couch-surf, sleep in cars, or camp in tents just to stay in school. One master’s student from India has moved five times in a year alone. Only 32% of students have access to university-provided housing, leaving international and postgraduate students especially vulnerable.

Curtin acknowledges the problem and is working on long-term solutions, offering support and financial aid to those struggling.
