the city centre and within a short
walk of our campus. Other
accommodation sites are well
connected to the city and
campus via reliable, fast and
frequent public transport.
A sense of
community
Living in University
accommodation provides a
fantastic chance to meet fellow
students from all over the world.

Continuous
contracts
Most University accommodation
contracts cover the whole
academic year, meaning that you
don’t need to vacate your room
during the major holidays and
over the summer. We also have
flexible payment arrangements
to help you spread the cost.
Lots of options
From traditional buildings to
modern developments and
a range of en suite options
at most residences, we have
something for everyone
including accommodation for
families, couples, single gender,
adapted, and for part-time
students.
