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.

Absolutely awful. If youre unlucky enough to be placed on the bottom floor -expect depression to head your way. Bushes in front of the windows blocking natural lighting, bars on the windows so you cant open them more than 2 inches. Tiny rooms, not enough fridge and freezer space for 14 people shared accomodation. The only saving grace is the placement - its on campus so easy access to everything. Although dont expect a good night sleep on wednesdays and the weekends as youre right next to the student club

There is no common area to relax with flat mates only the kitchen which is not private at all. It makes it difficult to have friendships in the accommodation as there is no where to relax together aside from bedrooms.

Met lovely friends there, however mine was 2 floors which is the more social one. Rooms are ok, spacious but old compared to manor park. Amazing location next to town and 5 min walk to lectures, kitchen cleaned 2 or 3 times per week. no social space except the kitchen

My house is opposite to milenium house which is close to the station, town centre. location is perfect, sounds from cars are noisy though . room size is large enough, but the water/hot water supply, and heater were often broken. Even now the heater in our kitchen is broken, so it is still perfectly working in this middle of August.

University court is good. But the way the buildings are laid out means it's hard to be social as you don't walk past any rooms as the building is 3 floors and the kitchen is on the first floor.

These halls are really nice and the closest to town/the train station and to Rubix (SU). I have an en-suite with the nicest shower, hot water in ten seconds flat. The kitchen can be a little cramped with all ten of us, but we rarely all cook at once so it's usually fine. My room is a good size and it's fine for any on-campus locations.

The location of University Court accommodation is good, however compared to the other Band D rooms, you do not get the same value for money.

Accomodation was expensive, and the building is so old. No internet in the kitchen. No social area except for the kitchen, so quite hard to socialize. Kind of ugly too. But the location makes up for everything else, as its close to rubix, lecture halls, and the way to town and the train station.

Stay is comfortable, it just looks old and hard to clean, i.e. The carpet is impossible to hoover and my shower.
