Coventry University's own halls (Bishop Gate, Godiva Place, The Cycle Works and the postgraduate-only Parish Rooms) are officially priced for 2025/26 from about GBP 150/week for a standard ensuite (The Cycle Works) up to GBP 210-220/week for premium and deluxe studios at Bishop Gate/Godiva Place, with postgraduate Parish Rooms from GBP 118/week for a standard bedroom. Heating, lighting, water and contents insurance are included in the rent, and a GBP 90 advance licence fee secures a room ahead of instalment payments. Private-sector halls near campus (e.g. The Residence, Westwood Mews, Infinity, Merlin Point) add further options from roughly GBP 105-210/week depending on room type and provider.

All halls are self-catered with shared or private kitchens. Coventry's compact city centre has supermarkets, a market hall and a growing multicultural food scene reflecting the city's diversity (44.7% of residents identify as an ethnic minority, 2021 census), including South Asian, East Asian and Middle Eastern grocery and restaurant options within walking distance of campus; Birmingham, about 20-30 minutes away by train, offers a considerably larger international food scene for students wanting more variety.

The 33-acre purpose-built city-centre campus sits next to Coventry Cathedral and teaches roughly 29,500 students (about 19,700 undergraduate, 9,800 postgraduate, 2024/25), drawing well over half from outside the UK, one of the highest international shares of any UK university outside London. Facilities include the Lanchester Library, the Alan Berry Building, the William Morris Building and the 1,800m2 National Transport Design Centre with clay-milling and 3D immersive VR facilities. The Student Centre acts as a single point of contact for enrolment, fees, timetabling and wellbeing queries.

Campus security and a Student Centre act as the first point of contact for welfare and safety concerns. Coventry is generally regarded by students as a safe, affordable city, though as in any UK city, standard precautions are advised at night and away from the compact, largely pedestrianised campus and city centre. Student surveys have flagged the city's affordability and low-crime feel relative to larger UK cities. The International Student Support team advises on visa applications, finances, accommodation and orientation, and runs social events for new arrivals. International undergraduates can apply for the Coventry University Group Scholarship (GBP 2,000/year, up to GBP 6,000 over a 3-year degree) or Vice-Chancellor Undergraduate Scholarship (up to GBP 4,000); postgraduates can apply for the Vice-Chancellor Postgraduate Scholarship (GBP 2,500).
