First year students are allocated their rooms by the College. Second, third and fourth-year students are allocated rooms following the room selection procedure which takes place in May each year. Students are expected to provide their own sheets, duvets, pillow cases, towels, any crockery and cutlery that they want for tea and coffee in their own rooms and a bedside lamp. We have no rooms suitable for married postgraduates or those with children. All students living in College pay an inclusive termly Residence Fee which covers full-board and lodging.
Postgraduates living in College also have meals included during term-time.
