Moving into halls of residence is the best possible thing a new student in a new city can do. I can’t really put into words what a good time I had in halls - all I can say is that I strongly recommend it!
You can apply for University accommodation once you've firmly accepted your offer to study here. It can take up to 48 hours after firmly accepting your offer to study until you are able to access the system to apply for accommodation.
Most of our accommodation is in the heart of the city and only a short walk from the university. Our student peer support network will help you settle in quickly and meet new people.
