Easter vacations are advised to apply for accommodation in self catered Halls. Where this more flexible service proves to meet students' needs we will expect to extend the principle of operation to other catered Halls. Where applicable, further information will be made available to all students with their offers of places in Hall. Southampton has 20 gender-mixed Halls of Residence. Seven of them, Chamberlain Hall, Connaught Hall, Gateley Hall, Glen Eyre Hall, Highfield Hall, South Stoneham House and Traditional Halls provide undergraduates with breakfast and evening meals plus some meals at weekends.
All placements are in single rooms with facilities for study.
As well as dining facilities, other common rooms exist and the Halls are conveniently situated in pleasant landscaped grounds. Students requiring accommodation at Overdell Court should telephone the Accommodation Office for advice on residence fees. Further details will be offered through the Accommodation Office as soon as they are available. With regard to accommodation for single students, the University has continued to demonstrate its commitment to providing a broad portfolio of residential properties and so to respond to the full range of students' needs and priorities. Montefiore 3, extending provision within the Wessex Lane Complex by 594 en suite rooms, opened in October 1994.
