ZAMISE offers on-campus hostels for both male and female students, with limited availability. The Institution has accommodation for 440 students at the campus. Accommodation is on a shared basis with two students occupying each study room. The Institution does not provide quarters for married students nor does it provide quarters for student parents with babies. Students who are married or are parents with babies must, therefore, make arrangements for the accommodation of their families outside the institution. The Institution does not guarantee accommodation for every student. This is so because enrollment each academic year exceeds the available hostel accommodation; not all students can be given residential accommodation on campus. The hostels are organized into a number of halls of residence. Residents in each hall elect a representative each year to run the day-to-day governance and to deal with minor organizational and disciplinary problems that involve members of the hall. Each hall of residence is manned on a 24 hour basis by hall attendants, whose duty is to assist students with immediate residential problems.
