Accommodation & facilities

IN THIS SECTION

University accommodation plays a big part in the overall experience. At Kingston, new students get to select their own room and use social media groups to connect to new flat mates in advance, with university guidance available at every step of the way.

Living in halls of residences

Living in halls is a great way to get to know people, sharing space with other students from different backgrounds or on different courses. All first-year undergraduate students who have firmly accepted an offer are guaranteed accommodation. Further information is available online.

Renting from a private Landlord

Some students decide to live independently in the local area, and Kingston has their own dedicated KU Student Homes website to help students find their ideal living arrangements

Commuting to Kingston

There are a huge number of ways to commute to Kingston, with free bus services, local rail networks, cycle routes and on-site car parking available. There’s even an E-Bike hire service on campus.

Kingston University students on Whatuni say:

“The Kingston area is nice and safe.”

“Middle Mill was an excellent location for someone who had classes at the Kingston School of Art.”

“The uni is next door to my accommodation and a short walk away from town which is perfect.”

Kingston University has invested intelligently to provide a better teaching, learning and working experience for students, staff and local community.
