SHARED HOUSING
As the majority of our students live in shared housing, NSCD uses the services of Unipol, a student housing charity, who accredit all our recommended student housing using the Unipol code. This code aims to ensure that landlords meet and go beyond their legal minimum requirements in providing good quality, safe and well managed housing for students. NSCD recommends all students live in Unipol coded accommodation. New NSCD students will be directed to Unipol to assist with finding shared accommodation. For further information, please visit www.unipol.org.uk.
HALLS OF RESIDENCE
Should you prefer not to live in shared housing, there are many halls of residence in Leeds available due to the number of Universities and colleges in the city. Several NSCD students do take this route, though it is likely you will live alongside students from these other Universities or colleges.
Carr Mills are halls of residence located just a 15 minute walk away from NSCD and have many rooms available at just £102 per week. Should you wish to stay in these halls of residence, Carr Mills will endeavour to assign you a flat with other NSCD students – we suggest contacting Carr Mills as soon as possible should this be of interest as flats can be booked up very quickly.
iQ Student Accommodation are also located very close to NSCD, just 20 minutes’ walk away and have a range of room options at various prices.
The accommodation for students.com website lists many other private halls of residence which may be of interest to you. These range from £85 to £167 per week. Please ensure you check their distance from NSCD, as they may require public transport to enable you to get to the school. It is also important to note that not all of these halls of residence are Unipol coded.
Some additional halls of residence websites that may be useful are:
- Iconinc
- Unite Students
- My Student Halls
- HOME STAYS
Unipol can also coordinate home stays – there are several hosts in the area and Unipol can arrange introductions. If this is of interest, please get in contact with Unipol using the contact details on their website: www.unipol.org.uk.
HOW CAN YOU FIND SOMEWHERE TO LIVE DURING YOUR COURSE AT NSCD?
Throughout May Unipol collate information from local landlords and current NSCD students to produce a list of properties and rooms that will be available from September. They will then provide details of these properties by late May* both on their website and via the NSCD New Starters Facebook pages (new students will be invited to join these). By this point in time you will have had opportunity to get to know the other new starters on the Facebook pages and begun to consider who you may wish to share a house with.
*There will be very few properties available on a search of the Unipol site for our area prior to this date; please do not worry as there will be a plentiful supply.
NSCD HOUSE HUNTING DAY
Of course, you can arrange to view properties at any time that suits you but Unipol and NSCD hold a House Hunting Day for new students where they can find out further information about student living, meet local landlords and view properties. Please refer to the New Starters page of our website for further details on the 2019 entry House Hunting Day.
