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.

Ugly from the outside, but all of the benefits of Sallies without the noise at night
Great central location, with common rooms and dining space in St Salvators hall. This does mean a short walk for meals but it is worth it. A small community, very chilled out environment with nice study spaces available.
On the outside Gannochy looks pretty awful but on the inside the facilities are great. The showers are high-powered and the heaters don't break down. It is nice to have my own individual room but a large shared kitchen with plenty of room to store my food. It is great that we also have access to the Sallies facilities such as the Dining Hall, Common Room, Library and Basement. Overall I was really pleased with this hall.
Good community feel, love eating at sallies but still being able to experience the chateaux
It was a modern s*** in town
I love being in Gannochy, it may not look great from the outside, but the rooms inside are lovely (well the refurbished ones are anyway!) and the people are brilliant. Being able to use the facilities in Sallies is a plus, but I've loved it this year and have made some amazing friends.
