University of Leicester

The University of Leicester provides a range of accommodation options to its international student community. First year students who apply by the deadline are guaranteed a place in the university's halls of residence. The university offers both self-catered and catered halls of residence, each with its own unique amenities and features.

Some notable accommodations include The City Village, Nixon Court, and Opal Court, among others. Students are benefitted by a mix of single and shared rooms, communal kitchens or dining facilities, and communal spaces for socialising and studying. The university prioritises creating a supportive and inclusive living environment, and the accommodation staff are available to assist students with any concerns. The university can provide guidance for students who prefer private accommodation, usually in the second of third year of study.

The University of Leicester's Student Union (ULSU) typically organises a variety of events, including themed nights in freshers week. There are more than 250 student clubs run by fellow students at Leicester, covering social, creative, interest-based, culture and faith based themes.

Students can enjoy global street food options as the campus promotes inclusivity and the David Wilson library cafe provides a convenient place to eat. The Village - an on-campus accommodation site, offers a cinema room, music rooms, event space, plus a pub serving food and drinks for student use.
