Flat types
We offer some flats for students with specific preferences, for social, cultural or practical reasons. Each University residence contains several types of flat.
On this page:
No alcohol flats
You cannot bring alcohol into the flat.
Visitors who have been drinking alcohol cannot enter the flat.
Single sex flats
Flats that are only for female students, or only for male students.
Guests of another sex can visit the flat. Check our guest policy.
University staff or contractors of another sex can enter the flat. They will give you notice before they arrive.
Single sex and no alcohol flats
Some flats are both single sex and no alcohol flats.
LGBTQ+ flats
Flats for students who want to live with other lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer or non-binary students.
There are gender-neutral bathrooms in some of our other flats too.
Mature flats
Flats for undergraduate students, aged 21 or older.
Quiet flats
Flats for undergraduate students who want a quieter lifestyle.
We cannot control external noise.
These flats are not available for postgraduate students, whose flats are usually quieter.
