All the Answers You Need About Student Accommodation

What tenancy length do I need?

Some students choose to stay during the academic year, whilst others – particularly international students – require a tenancy that covers the entire year. You can also find student accommodation that is available for one or two terms, classified as a “short stay” on our search filters.

Should I stay in catered student accommodation?

This is totally up to you! Catered accommodation means you will be served meals at set times in a dining hall, and you’ll likely have access to fewer kitchen facilities than if you were to stay in self-catered accommodation.

What is a guarantor and do I need one?

A guarantor is a person who signs a contract to agree to pay your rent if you are unable to. Most university accommodation requires a guarantor, and this applies to both domestic and international students.

Will I need to pay a deposit on student accommodation?

Most likely, yes, you’ll need to pay a deposit. This will be refunded at the end of your stay as long as there is no damage to the room or property.

What bills will my rent include?

If you are staying in university-run accommodation or private halls, your rent should include any utilities such as electricity, gas, water, and internet. Students are not required to pay council tax, however you may need to fill in an exemption form so make sure you check with your local council.

What is purpose-built student accommodation?

Purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) are residential buildings designed for students. They are often located close to campus, boast modern facilities, include all bills, and often have staff on site to assist residents.

Will my student accommodation be furnished?

Student accommodation is typically fully furnished. Your room should include at least a bed, clothes storage, desk and chair. You’ll likely need to bring things such as bedding and kitchen utensils, but we have a full list here of everything you’ll need.

The rooms are gorgeous and a really good size and the building is just a two minute walk from the uni. Main problem is the reception opens too late so post sits in the lobby or isn't delivered at all. Also the windows here do not block out any noise at all and I'm constantly woken up by sounds from the canal or people walking past.

Think it’s a little bit pricy, the walls are very thin and you can hear everything your neighbours do, the safety mechanism for hob is frustrating, having to turn it on and off every 10 minutes (but I understand it’s there for safety purposes) and the bed frame creeks. But overall, the room is lovely and works just fine to live in, nice to call this room my own.

Living here is a pleasure, and I believe it is the place where Huddersfield provides the most peaceful learning and living environment. I come from China and have lived here for a year. The service and environment here are important reasons why I can persist in studying in a foreign country.

Overall a great place to live as the surrounding area is quiet and the staff are very helpful, but there are times when no one seems to be in at reception during working hours. Also, it would be better if the problem of rats sometimes in the rubbish place could be solved and someone could come and repair things promptly when they are broken

Great home away from home. The staff make me feel safe and are like our friends. The building is amazing however due to recent stabbings and shootings I do not feel very safe that the front door is broken and is always open for anyone to walk in.

Staff are incredible, particularly Axl and Helena, and it's good to know that regardless of what concerns you may encounter, help will be with you every step of the way. My studio is premium, cosy and makes me feel at home, and it's in the perfect spot to roll out of bed and on campus. Social events with food, drinks and games are held frequently to help you connect with other students. The cinema, gym and lounge are a personal favourite for me and my friends to relax and work, and the internet speed is rapid.

Kingsmill studios have the best rooms and for the best price. The location is near university which is amazing, they have social gatherings and they include everyone. Few parties here and there to keep you happy and having fun while studying.
