Accommodation image

University accommodation is offered in different properties and room types, with rent including utilities, high-speed Wi-Fi, basic contents insurance in most properties, activities and 24-hour support. The 2026/27 accommodation terms require a minimum £250 pre-payment when accepting the terms; it is deducted from rent and is not a deposit. Prices vary by property and room, so applicants should use the University's current accommodation pages rather than a generic estimate.
Daily living support image

Self-catered accommodation provides kitchen access, while food arrangements vary by residence and room type. Students should check the chosen residence's facilities and plan grocery costs separately. Leicester's city setting provides multiple food options, but the University does not present one universal meal plan or guarantee that every dietary need is met in every residence.
Safety and support image

The University provides accommodation support and student-facing services, while the city and UK emergency systems apply outside campus. Students should save the University's current welfare, security and international-student contacts, read residence rules and confirm emergency and insurance arrangements before arrival. No university page reviewed here supports a blanket safety guarantee. International applicants can use the University's country qualification guidance, English-language guidance, admissions contacts, accommodation service and visa information. Research applicants should identify supervisors and submit the required proposal and supporting documents; Computer Science recommends applying five to six months before a visa-dependent start. Careers and Employability support is available during study and after graduation.
