Like where you live? You can stay there!

When you picture second year at uni, you might imagine moving into a shared house off-campus. But have you ever thought about staying in halls?

Here's why halls life can be just as good, if not better, the second time around.

1. No surprise bills

Gas, electric, water, WiFi  – all sorted! With bills included in your rent, you don't need to worry about setting up accounts, chasing flatmates for money, or panicking when the heating goes on too long. 

2. Prime location

Halls are much closer to campus than private houses. Godiva Place, The Cycle Works and Parish Rooms are just a 5-minute walk from the university, and Bishop Gate only a 10-minute walk.

This means you can roll out of bed late and still get to your morning lectures on time, all while saving on transport costs. 

3. Social life, sorted

From spacious and lively common rooms to social events organised by your accommodation team, it's easy to meet new people and make memories in halls, even if your first-year flatmates have moved on. Not to mention you'll also be close to The Hub, another great social space on campus used as a hangout spot, event space and for food and drink. 

4. On-site support

From maintenance teams to reception staff, there's always someone on hand if you need assistance. Lost parcel? Leaky tap? We've got your back. Private rentals rarely come with that level of support compared to university-owned accommodation. 

5. Safety and security

Secure entry, CCTV, and on-site staff make halls one of the safest places to live in the city. Not only is it peace of mind for you, but also for your friends and family. 

6. Modern facilities, all in one place

Laundry rooms, study spaces, gyms, bike storage and more! Living in halls is like having a ready-made package of extras on your doorstep, so you can spend more time on your studies and having an unforgettable experience. 

7. Stay in the loop

Living in the heart of campus, you can be closer to campus life, whether that's events going on, clubs and societies, or jst grabbing lunch between lectures. You never feel out of the loop. 

8. Less hassle booking

No need to look through endless house listings, argue over who gets the big room, or worry about landlord references. Staying in halls keeps it simple.

Halls aren't just for freshers, they can be a stress-free and social choice, giving you all the benefits of student life.
