Types of Student Accommodation

It is very important to investigate fully the student accommodation Coventry options available to you before making a decision. We're going to quickly go over the different types of accommodation that you might look at.
Halls of Residence
University halls of residence are where most first year students end up living. They are usually owned by the university or a private company supported by the university. They usually consist of sets of rooms that share a common kitchen and living area and sometimes a bathroom although some have en-suite facilities. Most students choose to move out of halls after the first year but there are usually some places available for returning students.

Shared Houses
This is usually the route that returning students take. Towards the end of the first year groups of friends usually discuss living together and collect enough people to fill a house. Most will contain five or more bedrooms plus communal kitchens, living areas and bathrooms. There are plenty of student houses to rent Coventry. If you don't have enough people to fill whole house there are always people looking for more house mates and you may be able to rent a room in a house.

Flats
If you are in a long term relationship with someone at University or in the same city or just have one very close friend that you want to live with you may want to consider renting a small flat. This will usually cost more than living in a shared house but will give you a lot more privacy if that's something you're interested in. You could even consider living alone if you are also working and can make the money stretch that far.
