They're not really the same. Domiciled refers to a country of residence whereas housed fits in with the idea of being accommodated in blocks of flats.

It means that the students live in flats or apartments. As there are several flats located in one building, the flats are arranged in blocks.
Let me know if this makes sense.

| hi! isn't it possible to say that the students are placed in the blocks of flats? If they do not really choose which appartment they are going to live in.. |

Hi,
I think using 'placed' is too impersonal. 'Placed' suggests that they are physically put there. You would say:books would be placed in a bookcase.

My dictionary underlines the idea of domicile as permanent or fixed residence which doesn't fit for students who live in the blocks of flats only during their course of study.
PS. Can we use in the campus & at the campus or only on the campus is possible?!

On the campus is the correct term.
On campus (no 'the') is also used.

Your domicile is the place where you live. If you are domiciled in the USA, you live in that country.
You ought to use a good Learners' Dictionary.

Hi Nevinvarghe,
Remember that 'domiciled' is an official word used with reference to documents, passports and so on.
