Do you need somewhere to stay while you search for a flat in London?

In late summer, we offer places in halls on a short-term basis. Staying in halls while searching for a place to rent is how a lot of students find their housing each year. It's also an opportunity to meet other students with whom you can start a flat share.

For details, see: Student discount for short-term rooms in halls

Do you need help before signing a tenancy agreement?

Make an appointment with the University of London Housing Service contract checking service. They will discuss and clarify the terms of the contract with you, and flag up potential problems.
