INTRODUCTION LIVING


Living


Our Accommodation Office will help you find somewhere to live, and can advise you on both University and private accommodation throughout your time at Bristol.


We offer an advice service for students with particular housing needs, such as students with disabilities and those with young families. Details of all our services, including films of our residences, can be found at bristol.ac.uk/accommodation.


Accommodation options


University-allocated accommodation The University offers around 1,500 self-catered single rooms for postgraduate students, all located within walking distance of the University. If you are accompanied by a partner or family, you can apply for one of a small number of University couple and family flats. The online application process starts in May and offers will be emailed from July; please check our website for further information.


Private rented accommodation There is a good supply of accommodation available from private landlords in Bristol. The Accommodation Office provides information and guidance about renting privately and can point you to websites where landlords and students advertise for tenants. We also run a residential house search event in August, giving you the opportunity to meet other postgraduates and to look for private rented accommodation as an individual or with other students as a group.


Accommodation guarantee We guarantee to offer you University-allocated accommodation for one year provided that you:


• are paying fees at the overseas rate; • apply by the given deadline; • are unaccompanied; • have accepted an offer of a place of study;


• are a new, full-time student in your first year of study at the University of Bristol;


• will be starting your studies in September and will be here for a full academic year.


Please be aware that the guarantee does not apply to students who pay fees at the UK/EU rate. However, you may still be able to apply for


University-allocated accommodation even if you do not meet the criteria for a guaranteed offer. From August, we will email all non-guaranteed applicants with updates on the availability of University accommodation and information about alternative housing options.


Support you’ll receive


All postgraduate students living in University- allocated accommodation have the support of pastoral staff, who are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The team is trained to provide a wide range of expert help, including advice and practical guidance on wellbeing; community-building and student development activities; and student support and mentoring. Building representatives are also on site in case there’s an issue with damage to your room or flat or if something needs to be repaired. For more information on the support available, visit bristol.ac.uk/study/postgraduate/student- life/wellbeing.
