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.
Read Margaret Macdonald House Reviews
I was in MMH last year and was really good for the social side of things. You were really close to town and the university. The facilities themselves were definitely not worth the money. Which was much more than the average person pays for a flat in Glasgow. The heating sometimes wouldn’t work and our cooker was a bit temperamental. Socially it was really good thought
Kinda dirty but great people
Halls were the best thing about this uni.
really good location
Halls were very basic but fine. Heard that the new halls are much better equipped but also a bit cold and sterile.
Clueless people that work there. When I moved in the room was in a state, and although I cleaned it thoroughly I still got remarks on the walls being dirty.
The best halls for social life, but don't expect much from the actual accommodation itself! The slats are very basic, but management is nice and lenient (parties never shut down etc) and it's ridiculously close to everything so definitely the best halls to go to for GSA.
