1 / 3
Aldgate East runs along the line between the financial district and the East End, which is why the rents swing so hard from one street to the next.

Aldgate East and Liverpool Street between them cover the District, Hammersmith & City, Central and Elizabeth lines, so most campuses are one change away.

Platinum Studios are among the larger options, while Diamond Studios offer the largest and most exclusive accommodation options. Shared apartments feature between two and eight bedrooms, with a choice of en-suite rooms or rooms with shared bathrooms.
