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.

Hello and thank you for your review of Oakholme Road accommodation. We are very grateful. It's good to hear you like the accommodation. There are launderettes located across the sites and if you go onto the Washpoint website and select your location you can see when a machine is free to use. Laundry fees are also included in the rent. Best wishes, Sharon
Great couples apartment in 36 Oakholme Road with really nice large rooms, bills included and in a lovely area close to 2 parks and university buildings. WiFi isn’t great though and originally had cat hair everywhere but most issues have been sorted quickly.
Hello and thank you for your review, we really appreciate it. I am sorry that you had issues with the WiFi. With thousands of students in halls it's a service high in demand. Any maintenance issues can be reported on line and the Customer Services team are happy to assist acs-custommerservices@sheffield.ac.uk The Ranmoor/Endcliffe site is lovely with load of trees and open, green spaces. It's close to parks and the botanical gardens and the main campus is around 25 minutes walk along well lit, main roads. Please accept my apologies regarding the cat hairs. Pets are not allowed in any of our accommmodation without prior consent by the accommodation team accommmodationoffice@sheffield.ac.uk and only registered support animals are considered. We do have a resident cat though called Harold so maybe the previous tenant had him in to vist ?. Best wishes, Sharon
