Your choice of accommodation is a crucial aspect of your study experience, and as an international student, it's one of the most significant decisions you'll make. We understand the importance of this decision, and we're here to assist you in finding the ideal place to call home during your stay in the UK.
Our international team is dedicated to helping you secure welcoming and modern accommodation well before your arrival. We have established partnerships with a variety of accommodation providers that offer exceptional living, leisure, and study facilities. With a wide range of options available, we can find a room that fits your budget. Our accommodation can be categorised into two distinct groups: private student residences and homestay accommodation.
Our private student residences are purpose-built exclusively for students like you. The rent you pay is an all-inclusive rate, which means you won't have to worry about additional expenses like gas, electricity, water, and internet access – they're all included in the package!
Our partner providers are close to the College, ensuring convenient access to campus and local amenities. Prices start at just £185 per week, depending on the room type and the amenities offered.
For those seeking a more personalised and immersive living experience, the international team at CAVC can arrange homestay accommodation. Our homestay accommodation costs £180 per week and includes all meals. All homestays includes 3 nutritious meals a day with fruit and vegetables.
All available homestay accommodations are situated within 10 miles of the CAVC City Centre Campus. During your stay, you'll have your own private bedroom, and you won't be required to share a room with another student. This offers you a unique opportunity to experience British culture while having a comfortable and welcoming environment to call home.
At CAVC, we understand the diverse needs and preferences of our international students, and we are committed to helping you find the best accommodation options to suit your budget and lifestyle.
If you are over 18 years old and wanting to rent private accommodation be aware.
