Why our students love returning to halls

We know returning to halls is a fantastic accommodation option throughout your studies, but don't just take our word for it, hear from our students on why they chose to return to halls.

"I felt so at home living in halls that it simply felt right returning to halls for my second year. Socially, halls are perfect. Halls also benefit me academically as I am just minutes away from my lectures and I spend so much time at the library, so it鈥檚 wonderful that it's so close to my bedroom!"

"Living in halls, with a catering team and cleaning team to look after me, made the student experience much more manageable when the workload increased in second and third year and I wanted to avoid any additional stress."

"Living in halls over two years allowed me to meet a diverse range of people who I would not have met otherwise. I met some of my best friends through living in halls and eating in the dining hall, which was a great way to socialise and meet people."

"The thought of moving into a house felt like a big step, and I didn't want to deal with landlords, separate insurance or utility bills. Staying in halls was definitely the right decision for me. We鈥檙e well fed and looked after too by the catering staff and warden team!"

"A major bonus of living in halls is obviously the location 鈥� I have very often rolled out of bed at 8:50AM and made it on time for my 9AM lecture 鈥� a luxury I didn鈥檛 want to give up just to live in town!"
