AFS always has the widest choice of student accommodation available. To help you find the right place to live, read our brief guide to the different types of accommodation below.
University residences which are generally full of first year undergraduates are a great way to adjust to living away from home and making new friends. Uni halls are usually located close to campus.
Generally offer a higher level of amenities than University Halls, at higher rents. Will be home to a more diverse mix of students and normally located close to campus.
A house share with a group of friends is often the lowest cost option and popular as the next step after living in Halls. Typically located in student friendly areas which require some travel to University.
A flat or apartment is similar to a house share on a smaller scale and will normally have one or two bedrooms. Ideal for smaller groups or couples.
Either a premium room in a Private Hall of Residence or a self-contained flat or apartment where all of the amenities are in one space. Typically the most expensive option.
A room in a house where the landlord or owner currently lives. A good option if you are not too concerned about living with other students and are budget conscious.
A self-contained room, which includes most amenities but with shared bathroom facilities.
A room available in a house share, where a group of existing housemates want to fill an empty room. A good way of getting the benefits of a house share without an established group of friends.

UCA is the second largest provider of creative arts education in the UK, with around 6,000 students distributed across their four campuses. Epsom is just a 30 minute train ride to Waterloo or Victoria and has an active local art scene with plenty of social opportunities, making this town a desirable place for students to live.
The student population in Epsom is flourishing and the town has a very successful accommodation provision. There are several halls of residence in Epsom, including halls of residence owned by the university and private properties. The university offers numerous halls for their students both on campus and in the surrounding area, these residences are all self-catered.
Private halls can often be dispersed throughout the area with excellent travel connections into campus. These private halls are managed by larger corporations that effectively administer student accommodation throughout the UK.
Shared houses are certainly a popular option for returning students, but also for students who feel that conventional halls are not right for them. This type of accommodation is particularly suited to groups of 4 or more students. In addition, privately rented flats and apartments are a popular choice, often situated nearby the university or with useful travel connections. Landlords or letting agents typically manage these private residences; they are specialists in student accommodation and there are many in the area with esteemed reputation.
