Enjoy all the benefits our halls have to offer

Choosing university accommodation offers several benefits that can enhance your overall uni experience.

Here are some key reasons why staying on-site with us is a great choice:

  • Convenience: Living on campus means you are close to classes, the library and other facilities, saving you travel time and making your daily routine more manageable.
  • Community and social life: We have a vibrant and multicultural community, which welcomes people of all faiths and none. Residents also tend to benefit from social events that are exclusive to students staying on campus, most of which are free! They provide opportunities to meet new people and make friends, so that you can be a part of a supportive and connected student community.
  • Facilities: We offer a range of facilities on-site. Our Edinburgh Campus includes the Oriam sports centre, a doctor's surgery, a dentist and a student shop. At our Scottish Borders Campus, our halls are a 3-minute walk from an award-winning fitness centre, with great discounts for students, and you can benefit from the campus canteen and cafĂ©, which offer freshly made food every day. These amenities make daily life more convenient and enjoyable.
  • Safety and security: Our SafeGuarding team are on-site 24/7, ensuring a safe and secure environment.
  • Inclusive costs: Our rent includes heating and power, internet, assisted cleaning of communal areas, contents insurance and 24/7 Safeguarding, making it easier for students to budget without worrying about additional bills.
