Belonging is built here

A community isn't created by a building.

It’s created by the people who choose to live there.
At 42R, every student contributes to the kind of environment we all want to be part of—one built on respect, curiosity, responsibility and genuine connection.

Belonging isn't something you're given.
It's something we build together.

We ask every resident to bring something with.

Small actions shape the experience of everyone who lives here.

Respect

We value every person and every shared space.

Curiosity

Different perspectives make us stronger.

Responsibility

Small actions shape our community.

Contribution

Everyone helps create the experience.

What You Gain

University builds more than knowledge.

Diverse communities build confidence, resilience and the ability to live alongside different perspectives.

These are the qualities that employers value, communities need and lifelong friendships are built on.

At 42R, you'll leave with more than a qualification.
You'll leave having grown as a person.

Living Together

Be part of a great community

Great communities aren’t an accident. They grow through everyday choices

Looking out for one another, respecting shared spaces, resolving differences constructively and recognising that everyone has a part to play.

At 42R, you will learn all of these skills, and more.

Our role is to create the environment.
Your role is to help shape the culture.

Better Together

Independence doesn't mean going it alone.

Independance is learning when to lead, when to listen, when to ask for help and when to offer it.

At 42R, students and staff share responsibility for creating a safe, welcoming and respectful place to live.

Because the strongest communities are built with one another, not for one another.

Together, that's what makes 42R different.
