Why Choose UCL Private Accommodation?

Although UCL makes on-campus accommodation available for grad students in their first year, these spaces are usually in high demand and on a first-come-first-served basis. So, it may not be easy for international students to get their hands on a space before resumption. Also, they have a set of rules that students must adhere to and also feature shared spaces like kitchens.

Private accommodation is the next best option for grad students who want more privacy and flexibility in living spaces. This option ranges from PBSAs and shared student apartments to luxury residences located in the best parts of the city near the UCL campus.

Affluent foreign postgrad students usually opt for luxury apartments, which offer more security, privacy, flexibility, and hotel-style amenities like an on-site gym, pool, elevators, concierge service, etc. These apartments are also located near iconic landmarks, shopping malls, restaurants and transport links, making life easy for residents.
