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 Blythswood House Reviews
GSA only has two halls to choose from, it’s good if you feel like you want to know everyone. However after coming from a small school I didn’t enjoy that.
Really not bad at all, I enjoyed my time there. Flats of 7 students, 5 per floor, so it could get very messy and loud at times but as a first year student I was grateful for the authentic experience. Very central and close to the uni.
WiFi is good you have to make your own fun same all unis
I wasn't in halls but people seem to not mind them but they can be pricey for the facilities provided. The parties are good and you'll meet lots of friends but the Res life can be jobsworths and killjoys.
Good hall with loads of space but not the best for gathering together in the same terms as the other one. But still made good friends and liked having my own bathroom!
Really nice small rooms and alot of social spaces for parties and group meals
I didn't go to halls but I'm basing my review of stars off of peers.
Wow! A very nice place to stay!
Bylthswood was a lovely place to live, there were always people partying or socializing in the halls but the individual rooms were cozy and quiet. The bed was comfortable and having your own bathroom with shower is always a huge plus. In comparison to the other student halls provided by GSA this one is by far the cleanest and most comfortable. If you are looking to stay here ask for a room at the end of the hall away from the kitchen if you like it quiet.
It's very good, clean, well maintained and refined, albeit possibly a little too septic; you feel as though you could disappear within the soundproofed rooms for a week and no one would notice. I would recommend Margaret McDonald House instead for the superior social experience - the fundamental most important part of halls.
If you love hospitals then this is the place for you
New, a bit too sterile, but in the city centre, and close to the university.
I'm an introvert. So I don't do social interaction
Bog standard halls, feels quite hospital like, however the people you meet make up for that.
Blythswood House was very close to campus and in an ideal location in Glasgow City Centre, I really enjoyed the time and connections I made there.
