Guide to NTU and UPP accommodation

We’ve specifically designed our halls of residence for student living.

Find out everything you need to know about NTU and UPP at NTU accommodation so that you can weigh up the differences and choose the right accommodation for you.

Living in student accommodation is a great way to live independently, make new friends, be a part of NTU’s student community, and settle into your new life at university.

If this is your first time living in your own place, you’ll really want your accommodation to feel like a home from home. There are many options available on or close to the University campuses and the city centre, from NTU and our partner provider - UPP, including halls of residence and university shared houses.

Home from home

All NTU and UPP halls are specifically allocated to our students. Halls are the ideal place for you to live during your time at University and most first-year undergraduate students live in halls.

There are a wide choice of rooms, in a safe, secure and supportive environment. Accommodation includes en suite bedrooms with shared, fully-equipped kitchen-dining area; bedrooms with shared bathrooms; or studios.

Each of our residences includes:

  • security - including CCTV, door entry systems and on-site or on-call security staff
  • utility bills - internet, heating, water and electricity bills paid for in your accommodation fees
  • contents insurance - free basic contents insurance, which you can easily top-up for more expensive items.

Typical support in accommodation includes:

  • welcome reps
  • reception staff
  • university warden service – providing out-of-hours wellbeing support
  • student accommodation support officers - providing guidance in resolving accommodation issues and signposting to other services.

Residence Life

The Residence Life programme — exclusively for students in UPP halls at NTU — provides access to over 150 free events.

With events including weekly socials, ‘do it together’ activity kits, celebrity speakers, cultural events, life skill sessions, competitions, and giveaways, it's a great way to meet new people and try new things.

Housing Hand guarantor service

NTU has partnered with Housing Hand to provide guarantor services for students who would otherwise struggle to provide a UK guarantor.

You can find more information about the services offered and links to start the application process within relevant accommodation information pages.

Please note, you do not need to provide a guarantor for NTU or UPP accommodation.
