Here you can find our student accommodation fees for the 2021/22 academic year. For 2020/21 fees, visit the accommodation portal.
You’ll sign a contract with us when you accept a room in our halls of residence.
We offer 4 different contract lengths: 36 week, 38 week, 40 week or 51 weeks. This means you can choose to pay more and stay in your room during holiday periods, or move out during holidays to pay less.
Some contract lengths are only available for certain rooms or halls. Your contract options will be shown to you when you apply for accommodation.
If you live in a self-catered room, you'll be responsible for preparing all your own meals.
