When you apply you can express a preference for which room type you are allocated and who you share with. We offer a specific area for Postgraduate study. When your entry requirements are satisfied, you will have 7 days to pay your £750 deposit and advanced rental instalment, or you will lose your guarantee of a room.
There are three types of room available:
Our Docklands Campus is located along the exciting and rapidly developing Royal Albert Dock with stunning views of the water, London City airport and the skyscrapers of Canary Wharf.
Each hall of residence contains flats with normally five bedrooms.
Each study-bedroom has a bed, desk, chair, wardrobe, bookshelves, pin board, and en-suite toilet, washbasin and shower facilities.
Each flat contains a kitchen/dining area. There is a well-equipped launderette within the halls of residence, and the campus facilities include two bars, a refectory, coffee shop and fitness centre.
Gallions Reach is nearby – a major retail park with shops and supermarkets, and central London can be reached on the Docklands Light Railway (DLR) within 30 minutes.
