Accommodation
If you are supporting someone who is considering university, this is likely the first time they will have lived away from home. Where a student lives during their university experience is more than just a roof over their head. It is a place of their own – to relax, study and spend time with their friends.
We want to support our students in finding the perfect accommodation option. We have 'a range of on-campus accommodation choices', or if they decide to live off-campus. Our Accommodation Services team will also be able to help your child find a place to call home in the surrounding area.
