Alternative Accommodation for Students

Here you can find accommodation information for students returning to UCL for subsequent years of study and for those not eligible for UCL halls.

UCL Accommodation

UCL has limited accommodation options available for returning students and those students who do not meet the eligibility criteria to be guaranteed university accommodation. Please note that the offers available exclusively to UCL students in private provider properties are time-limited, and depending on the terms of the offer, the providers may change their prices subject to demand.
