UCL Student Houses
These are UCL residences in which students are responsible for providing and cooking their own food and cleaning their own rooms (and common areas if living in flats).
Kitchens are provided in which students may
prepare their own food, or meals may be bought from the various food
outlets on the main UCL campus.
Bedlinen is not provided, but can be
purchased. Students will need to supply their own kitchen utensils. Some
of the Houses are large and purpose-built, while others are converted
private houses. Places are offered for 39 weeks.
Hall fees cover residence for 30 weeks of the UCL academic year plus the Christmas, Easter and start of the summer vacations. Catering is provided for 35 weeks.
