Moving into uni accommodation is exciting as you begin a new chapter in your life, but it can be a little daunting . And yes it can seem like there are so many things to consider, and that’s why our accommodation options aim to make your experience straightforward and stress-free, so you can make the most of your time at uni. When you pay for uni accommodation, your space typically comes fully furnished, meaning essentials like a bed, desk and storage are already sorted. This may vary slightly depending on which accommodation you’re staying in so be sure to look at all the options available to see what suits your needs and your budget.
You will also have access to shared areas like a kitchen and social spaces, so you’re not living alone, which helps you meet people and settle in. One of the biggest perks is that all your main bills are included in the rent. That means, electricity, heating, water and internet. No splitting costs with housemates or worrying about surprise charges.
Accommodation includes high-speed Wi-Fi (up to 1GB), so streaming, gaming and studying online are all covered. Our on-site laundry facilities means you don’t need to worry about finding somewhere off campus. You also benefit from 24/7 security and wardens. This means help is always nearby if you need it, whether it’s a practical issue or just reassurance.
Your rent also covers basic contents insurance, protecting your belongings without needing to arrange it yourself. Depending on where you stay, you may also get access to social events and activities, shared study spaces or games rooms and cleaning services in some accommodation.
At first glance, accommodation prices might seem high, but when you realise it includes bills, Wi-Fi, security, furniture, and insurance you realise it covers all those things that you might have to otherwise arrange yourself.
For many first-year students, it removes a lot of stress and lets you focus on settling in, making friends and enjoying uni life. Be sure to check out our range of accommodation options which suit a range of budgets and find out what will work best for your needs.
