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.

Good accomodation staff, very good wifi for gaming & streaming
Good year here! Internet is on and off, sometimes it's great and other times it's bad! Kitchen is the only communal space we had but we kept our bedroom doors open and spent more time in each others rooms cause of it. Ensuite is perfect, shower toilet and sink and is nice to have your own space. Less than a minutes walk away from bus stop to chi and halls are super close to all buildings on campus. Town is again like a 5/10 minute walk away from halls. Kitchen space is good. Enough cupboard space for everyone and fridge freezer big enough for essentials. Also, tesco deliver to campus which is handy when you want to go out! SU in Bognor doesn't have too many events so would advise either going to chi or into Bognor town where you have Sheiks nightclub, a spoons and the hardwick bar. I had a great year here!
The halls are perfectly located on campus, the BRC campus is very small so everything is very close. As a catered student the food was pretty good but the halls are fairly expensive, but have your own bathroom is a massive bonus!
