University of Surrey Information

Accommodation:

The hosting of the university ( Accommodation Service ) guarantee a place for all international students from first year, provided that request within the time limits. Every effort will be possible to accommodate students in the residence halls, and, where possible, assist as necessary to find suitable accommodation in other private accommodation. In the case of university accommodation (Courts), this is a group of houses near the campus, specifically designed to meet the needs of students. All homes have full kitchens and spacious so that students can prepare their own food, and are arranged in groups of houses.

Each bedroom is fully furnished with bed, table, lamp, chairs, wardrobes and bookshelves. Quilts, pillows and sheets are also provided, but each guest must bring their own towels and kitchen utensils (plates, knives and cooking pots).

Cost of living:

When traveling to the UK is necessary to bear in mind that will require sufficient financial resources to cover all expenses during our stay. It is very difficult to make an estimate of the amount of money that will be needed, since each person has a lifestyle and different needs.Usually at the beginning of the course costs are higher than during the rest of the course, it will be necessary to buy things for our new home, purchase books and academic materials or pay the reservation deposit of the room. Once settled in our accommodation, the estimated weekly cost for basic needs is £ 165, including rent.

To alleviate costs, it is better to opt for the residence halls, which are more economical because the price includes the cost of electricity, water or internet connection. Thus, the weekly price of accommodation will be between £ 55 and £ 115, which would add about £ 40 for food expenses.
