This is as close as you can live to UCL, SOAS and the School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, and the selection reflects it. There are very few addresses here and they go early. The Georgian squares are public, the British Library is a ten-minute walk, and you can leave for a nine o’clock lecture at twenty to nine.

Each tier has its own rate. Every room has the run of the building’s shared spaces.
If you turn 18 in the first semester of university, they can accept your booking at properties where there is 24/7 security available and an adult over the age of 18 must be a co-signatory on your tenancy agreement and must accept the terms of it. They can accept under 18s in some of their properties subject to their policy for students under the age of 18.

When applying for a room you will be asked a series of questions to determine the type of room/flat that you require, along with any special requests you may have. Please note that special requests cannot be guaranteed except where you have a disability as defined and covered under the Equality Act 2010. They will attempt to meet your allocation needs as far as practicably possible, should you have a defined disability. If you have a disability, medical condition or special request that affects your accommodation requirement please inform them in the additional notes section when completing your application, either online or by paper form. You are encouraged to disclose any special requests for your stay such as your preferences regarding culture, religion, sex, gender, etc. to enable them to make an informed decision about your room allocation. Where appropriate, an applicant may be prioritised through the allocation categories as a result of disclosing a disability to them.

Your room is yours for the full contract period and you don’t need to move out during academic breaks.
Do I need to pay council tax?
If you are a qualifying full-time student, you will be exempt from paying council tax. You must provide them with your council tax exemption certificate which your university will be able to arrange. If you do not have this when you move in because you have not yet enrolled on your course, please ensure that you bring with you the name of your university and your university student ID number.

On-site car parking is available at some properties, but is not included within the rental price unless explicitly stated and confirmed in writing.
