Prospective students
Welcome to Loughborough University!
We know that choosing where you live while studying at Loughborough is one of the most important decisions you will make. It is our aim to make sure that you have some of the best times of your life while you are living in a University hall. We are committed to providing you with safe, well managed, comfortable accommodation and give each of our student customers the chance to discover the 'Loughborough experience'.
Campus accommodation is about convenience, community and not having to get a bus to get to lectures in the morning or to go home at night! There are dining halls, cafes, bars, big screen TVs, the Students’ Union, laundrettes and bike storage – all on the doorstep. Most rooms are at the heart of the campus, near to the Library and lecture rooms and close to the Students’ Union.
Living in a hall provides you with a superb hall student committee, an unrivalled pastoral warden care system with trained University staff and a dedicated housekeeping team.
Like living at home but better - you live with your friends!
