University residences are located within walking distance of campus facilities and there's plenty of private rented accommodation close by. The University has four Managed Residences offering around 800 places. Additional accommodation, in the private sector, is available via the University Managed Scheme. Properties are let from private landlords and managed by the University.
All accommodation is self-catering although facilities do vary.
Applications from students with special needs are welcomed, though accommodation is limited. All rents are charged over 38 weeks. The University's Careers Service offers guidance and advice on career planning, application procedures and interview techniques.
