Accommodation

There are three main types of accommodation: private apartment, student accommodation controlled by a private company and the university accommodation who the university manages.


Private apartment

The private apartment is the least expensive of the three options. However, the living standards are not the same. Indeed, often this one has some isolation problems so you can feel very cold in your own apartment. It is also important to add that when the student pays a rent to a private owner, the charges such as gas, electricity and internet are not often included, so it is necessary to think about paying the electricity and maybe a council tax. The advantage is to pay only the month that you stay in the apartment. To find one it is easy, there are many websites which propose private apartments and with or without flat mates. In terms of budget, towns around Glasgow will be less expensive but the facilities are not the same concerning the proximity with malls, pubs, restaurants.

 University accommodation


The university accommodation is the best way to be close to the university. More and more accommodations have a good isolation and also the student only pays the month that they stay during their studies. The new building such as STORIE STREET in Paisley, proposes a double bed with an independent bathroom. The kitchen and the living room have to be shared with five other flat mates who are in the same university as that of the new student.  The gas/electricity, personal content insurance and internet are included in the rent. For example, regarding Storie Street and furnished flats of Paisley, the rent is £103 a week; Thornly Park costs £79 a week. There are also facilities for the laundry. The university gives the duvet and pillow to the students for free.

Student accommodation


Then, there is also the student accommodation. The particularity is that it is from a private company such as UNITE. The concept is exactly the same that the university accommodation internet, common room, utilities included except two details. The flat mates come from other universities and the payment is a rental agreement. In other words, it is only possible to pay 44 weeks at £107 a week even if the university course finishes earlier. However, the main advantage is that students will be in the city centre of Glasgow where all facilities are close to the accommodation. It is useless to take a bus, a train or a taxi to drink in a pub, to go outside in night clubs or to go to shopping; just walk until they reach the activity that students want. Also, there is a good bus service to go out of the city. It is also possible to use a bike storage facility, play the pool table or to use a car park for £10 a week.
