Types of Accommodation
If you're moving away from home to study, there are different types of accommodation on offer including Halls of Residence, shared houses, flats and lodgings. All of them are available close to The Park and town centre.

The University's dedicated Accommodation Team provides a wide range of services. They're open all year round and are available to advise and guide you towards the most appropriate accommodation for you.

The team will do everything they can to meet specific requirements for students with disabilities. So, if you have a particular need, please contact the University's Disabilities Advisers and the Accommodation Team.
 
Halls of Residence
On (and near) each campus, including The Park, are the University's Halls of Residence. Typically organised into buildings containing a number of study bedrooms and shared facilities, halls are a great place to start your university life. It's also a great way to meet people.
 
• Each hall has dining kitchens (usually on each floor)
• laundry facilities available
• Wardens and senior students on hand to provide help or support if needed
• On-site refectory open daily serving a wide variety of meals and snacks
• Free University bus service operating between campuses throughout the day and evening. Students are also able to use many local bus services for free.
 
Rooms in halls cost between £64 - 85 per week (2005-2006 prices), depending on location.
 
Shared flats or houses
If staying in Halls of Residence isn't for you, the Accommodation Team holds a database of registered flats and houses. Each property must meet certain standards and is regularly visited by the accommodation staff to make sure these are met.
