The University of Notre Dame Australia

Notre Dame Australia runs three campuses. Fremantle is the founding site, woven into the historic Fremantle West End in restored 19th-century warehouses, with the Tannock Hall of Education, Drill Hall and the Library housed in heritage buildings. Sydney sits at Darlinghurst and Broadway, with the School of Medicine, Sydney based in the Darlinghurst clinical precinct. Broome is a small campus in the Kimberley region focused on Indigenous health, education and nursing for the remote north-west. Notre Dame is a smaller institution, with total enrolment around 12,000 across all campuses, so first-year tutorials are tight and the cohort is closely tracked. Most students live off-campus in inner Fremantle, Sydney's inner east or Broome itself; there is no on-campus residential village, though the university operates a limited Sydney student residence at Broadway. Notre Dame Student Life runs around 30 clubs across the campuses. The brand is small-cohort teaching with a Catholic intellectual ethos, a Core curriculum (philosophy, theology, ethics) shared across all undergraduate degrees, and strong professional pathways into medicine, nursing, law and teaching.

Semester 1 runs late February to early June with a mid-semester break in mid-April and exams in early to mid-June. Semester 2 runs late July to early November with a mid-semester break in late September and exams in early to mid-November. Results release follows in early July and mid-December. Notre Dame also runs a Summer School in November to February for selected units. Orientation week sits in the week before each main semester.
