Living in halls is an ideal way for you to build lifelong friendships and adjust to university life in a safe, friendly and supportive environment during your first year.
Our University-managed halls are located on campus and in the nearby student village. Due to the popularity of our Residence Life social programme, location and halls team, bookings are made on a first come, first served basis.
We guarantee a place in halls – either University-managed or from accredited private providers – to all undergraduate first-year students who make Plymouth their firm first choice and apply by 10 May 2019.
Individual rooms and flats for various group sizes are available for returning students in University-managed halls. Please contact Accommodation Services about current availability and booking.
If you are interested in an alternative to University-managed halls of residence, it may be worth exploring the network of private halls and housing in the city.
We are able to support you in finding private accommodation – take advantage of our vast database of properties called Plym Uni Homes. Here you can browse the selection of halls of residence, houses, studio flats, homestay and much more.

The Student Accommodation Code
We adhere to the Student Accommodation Code which means that we go the extra mile to make sure that you get the best quality accommodation while you are with us. The Code is managed by an external group which inspects our halls to ensure that they are in tip-top condition.
