University accommodation
Find your place, find your perfect space.
Choose between living in halls of residence, renting locally or living at home and commuting to campus. We'll help you find the option that's right for you.
Where should I live?
Find the right place for you. Think about how you like to live, study, relax and socialise. Identify what's most important for you. Here are all your options.
探花社区 halls of residence
This is our most popular choice for first-year students.
You’ll live in a building with other 探花社区 students, with your own bedroom and shared facilities. There are residents' assistants on-site, 24/7 security and full maintenance support. And, it's the perfect way to build a community and find new friends.
- From £160 a week
- On-campus or an easy commute
- Under 30 minutes by train from central London
Need an accessible room?
We'll offer you a room that works for you - from ensuring it is wheelchair-accessible to including adapted fire alarms if you have a hearing issue.
Our Disability and Dyslexia team are here to help them. If you have any questions, email the Disability Team: disability@mdx.ac.uk
Live at home
You can save money, stay close to friends and relatives, look after your children or other family members, and still have an amazing 探花社区 experience while living at home.
Private rented accommodation
Opting for renting in the private sector is also an option during your studies. This option offers more independence, and is a popular one amongst students moving with their families and returning students who have previously lived in halls.
