New Medlock House staff is amazing, always really helpful and friendly. I love catching up with Zoeya and Hassan when I come back for the weekend from home. The TV room and dance studio are the best amenities and my room is lovely

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.

DO NOT STAY HERE OR GIVE THIS HORRIBLE COMPANY ANY OF YOUR MONEY. Rats in the kitchen reported in early June, they were still in the kitchen as of the 28th of August. Appalling service at basic hygiene and state that simply calling the pest control is all they have to do and aren’t obligated to do anything further. After asking for compensation, immediately shut down as if we are the ones in the wrong for even considering it. They so kindly provided use of an empty kitchen, in a DIFFERENT block, 6 FLOORS HIGHER?! And that’s reliant on the lifts actually working otherwise you would need to cart all your food and cooking utensils there and back up the stairs. The kitchen was kept tidy all year and due to dreadful building work the rats made it their home. Staff rarely, if ever at the reception and are often replaced with a “we’ll be back at …” sign which is more present than any human being and not accurately timed. Horrible accommodation run by a horrible company only in it for money.
