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.

Enviroment is great, the campus is big and clean. Food is above average and the hall is newly built so everything is fine!

Rooms are a fair size with good quality furnishings. Adequate storage space (and I Have a lot of stuff). Kitchen is a good size with good quality appliances, this is no other social/communal area though.

Pretty poor quality for the amount you spend! Shame better/nicer halls pay the exact same amount and we get no choice in where we get put.

love living in founders court, but it's ridiculous we pay the same amount of money as the people living in chancellors south and chancellors court. There kitchens and social area is so much bigger and nicer than ours! Also being put into the crosfield non alcoholic building without being told is a shock, I'm sure other people in other buildings don't drink alcohol and should of really been allocated into crosfield.

Common room space wasn't very comfy, halls were a bit small with just 4 or 6 people in the flats. Having a washing machine in the bottom floor of each building would have made life a lot easier.

Edge Hill University campus is beautiful and the accommodation is close to everything! The only things missing is a social room, a laundrette for each court and closer to a city (there isn't much in ormskirk). The accommodation itself however is spotless and modern. I would defiantly recommend to anyone!
