What will my accommodation cost?

This depends on the type of place you choose, and the facilities it has. You pay for the time you are in a hall of residence - about 30 weeks of the year. The price will cover all your amenities, like heating, lighting and hot water. Sometimes meals are also included. Usually, private accommodation is on a year's lease. You may well have to pay amenities such as gas, electricity, telephone, and so on, as well as the rent and a deposit. Ask for more details of costs from the university's accommodation offices.
