Accommodation costs
The information below is a guide to housing costs. We have used an exchange rate of £1.00=€1.10 in the figures below.
Semester only students will be offered lodgings, which are rooms in private homes. You pay the rent on a weekly basis, one week in advance. You also pay a deposit on arrival of one week's rent. Meals are not included.
Academic year students can apply for a place in our halls of residence. When you accept a room in halls we require a deposit of £200. Rent is then payable in three instalments. Meals are not included.
