Accommodation
Living in Queen Mary accommodation has many advantages and living in a student community can be an important part of experiencing University life. A dedicated team of residences staff, wardens and stewards are responsible for the general welfare of their residents and ensure that the residences are clean, comfortable and have a sense of community to promote an active academic and social life.
Because Queen Mary residences are so popular, there are some restrictions on who is eligible for a place but if you can answer 'Yes' to the following three questions you are likely to be offered a place.
Question one: Will you be a new full time registered student at Queen Mary, University of London, who has not lived in a Queen Mary residence before and who has applied by the deadline?
Question two: Is your home too far from Queen Mary to commute daily? Please note priority will be given to those students living furthest from QMUL.
Question three: Are you prepared to sign an agreement for a full academic year in residence, at least for the period September to June? (This condition does not apply to single semester Associate students)
If you can answer 'yes' to questions one and three, but live close enough to Queen Mary to commute you can still make an application which will be considered mid-term should vacancies arise.
If you can answer "yes" to questions one and two, but are not studying at Queen Mary for a full academic year, please click here.
Even if it does not seem likely that you will be offered a place in Queen Mary residences, please read on, as the information on renting local alternative accommodation may be useful to you.
If you have any queries regarding accommodation, please contact the Residences Office for assistance.
