Disrupting industry norms, Scape has become known for curating world-class living and learning environments for students. With stylish rooms and creative spaces, we provide a sanctuary that nurtures and shapes the minds of our future leaders. At Scape, residents have everything they need to feel safe, calm and at home while also feeling challenged, clued up and plugged in.

Our purpose

We believe that the home for our future leaders needs to be more than just a comfy bed. Sheltering them with rooms and buildings designed precisely for what they need and helping these brilliant minds take shape by introducing them to new cities, cultures, ideas and possibilities.
Student studying in her room

Shelter

At university, students will be doing some of the most important work of their lives. The place that they live needs to support them and make sure they feel safe, calm and at home. With that taken care of, they can produce incredible work, every day.

Shape

It’s also important that students feel challenged. We’ll introduce them to new eye-opening ideas. Make sure they’re clued up and plugged in to their new city and community. And give them that little bit of guidance that will make a big difference throughout university, and beyond.

Scape in Australia

Scape launched in Australia in 2014 and has since become the biggest purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) owner and operator.

Scape is home to over 17,000 residents in 35 buildings across Australia’s four key educational precincts – Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Adelaide – as well as 10 buildings in planning and development, which will bring the portfolio to 22,000 beds by the end of 2024.

Scape employs more than 700 people and is the largest investor in Australia’s higher education sector, with $6 billion (AUD) in capital committed since 2018.
