Halls of residence

“An advantage of living in halls is that as part of the application process you complete a personality questionnaire so you are matched with people similar to yourself.”

Lauren, current student

Booking your accommodation

Once you've chosen your preferred Halls of Residence, you can apply for your room via the accommodation portal. Halls of Residence applications are on a first-come, first-served basis. 

When allocating specific rooms, we endeavour to match you with people with similar living habits and interests. 

The application process includes some lifestyle questions to assist with the allocation.

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.
