Looking for a place to stay?
The campus is based in central London, and like all major cities, finding a good place to live can be challenging.
However, if you are open-minded, flexible, and willing to put in some work, you should have no problem finding suitable living accommodation. There are a few factors that you need to consider when it comes to booking accommodation:
- What type of accommodation do I want to live in (shared houses/flats, studio flats, private student residence halls, etc.)?
- What is my maximum budget for accommodation for the duration of the programme?
- Do I want to live alone or share with other people?
- How far do I want to be from the London campus?
It is important to consider that there may be other fees or charges in addition to your rent that could be applicable, such as administration fees or a deposit, and services bills.
Please make sure that you only book your accommodation from reputable organisations.
Where can I find suitable accommodation?
Student sites such as student.com have a lot of information on student accommodation and will help you search for your perfect London accommodation. Depending on the location and type of accommodation, whether student halls or private accommodation, prices can start from £130 per week for a shared room to over £400 per week for a private room.
Please see below a few student halls*, located close to our Campus, those highlighted in red accept under 18 students. In most instances, you will have the option of a private or shared room (shared rooms are normally for two people and are cheaper than private rooms).
