B.Sc from University Of Birmingham [BIRMINGHAM UNI], Birmingham - Fees & Admission Details 2025

• Friend referral. My friend stayed at HamCam and he recommended the place.
• The monthly rent was 396 GBP, including bills. The facilities provided were central and room heating, an oven, television, tv room within campus, a bar, turf, a church, a library, a washing machine area and instant damage replacements.
• No challenges. We had confirmed this from the start.
• Seek accommodation not too close to the university or city centre; that’s how you’d find it for cheap. The closer it is, the more expensive it gets.
• 30 mins by bus but we had a free bus pass for the entire year so it didn’t matter. Most indians stayed in the city centre or university accommodation, which was highly cost-inefficient compared to the facilities we were provided.

• I got student accommodation off campus through Amber Student. I paid in 9 installments of 1,015 per installment. I didn't face any challenges as such for my accommodations; however, for some accommodations, they require a UK Guarantor (a local guarantor for accommodation; if the payer forgets to pay the rent, the Guarantor will be contacted to make the payment on their behalf), which can be very tricky if the student doesn't have trusted local relatives or family members in the UK and also if you want to leave student accommodation for some reason, we need to pass on the accommodation contract to another person who is willing to take that remaining housing contract; however, it's not the case for rented apartments.
• As for suggestions for students, student accommodation is a much better option if they take it nearby and helps to keep the person more socialized, as there are around 5 to 10 flatmates depending on the accomodation and also no need to pay extra for wifi, security and utilities.

• There is outside accommodation. I stayed with my relatives. Although I heard the university will help to find accommodation through student services. They will guide you through the procedure and payment. There are quite a few challenges if you stay in student accommodation, as it is expensive.
• I did not pay any rent. If you have a friend, you do not need to find roommates. My place is far. I took a bus or someone dropped me off. It is best to find the outskirts since it is expensive nearby the university.

• Found my accommodation using Google
• My rent was about 625 GBP with all bills included
• I had no challenges; the process was easy
• I stayed in Altura by Novel student, and it was a very good decision. The accommodation is very centrally located
• My accommodation was 45 minutes' walk away from campus – it was one stop by train.
• Most Indian students stay in Selly Oak
   

• I found my accommodation on the university website.
• My monthly rent was around 450 gbp but this year it was raised to 580 gbp and wifi, electricity, water and heating were all included in it. The location is beautiful and is well connected.
• Since it was a university accomodation i had no issues looking for the same, and there were people to help me get to my room when i arrived with all the welcome kit and gifts.
• Look for cheaper accommodation in Selly Oak; it is nearest to the university and all supermarkets are nearby.
• My accommodation is 1.3 miles from my college.

• I opted for on-campus accommodation. Directly applied it through the University. Monthly rent is £870 and it includes an en-suite room with a shared kitchen.
• I did not face any challenges while doing so because the university guarantees accommodation for freshers.
• I would recommend choosing accommodation near the university to be productive and active.
• My accommodation is a 5-minute walking distance from the campus. There is not any particular place where Indian students stay. Students are widely spread at different places.

• My accommodation was on the campus, university-issued. It was the closest to the university. My rent was attached to my fees, so everything was paid on a 3-month basis through the payment plan that you can find on the website and portals of the university. I found my accommodation on the university website itself. I did not find any particular challenges.
• I would recommend University issued accommodations, as when you are taken care of by the University, you don’t have to take care of fixing any water or electricity issues - everything is covered in the fees. The security is also better, I would say. But if you choose some other accommodation, the fees could be lower.

I found my accommodation off campus there are many online platforms to book your accommodation. Moreover you can find brokers near the university who help you find good accommodation. The rent in Birmingham varies from 300 pounds to 600 pounds based on the location near to university. Great experience

• I stayed in University accomodation(Jarrat Hall). And monthly rent was close to 550 GBP for 2022-2023.
• with facilities of a shared kitchen with basic utensils and cutlery. Wi-Fi, contents insurance, and utility bills were all included. One needed to pay separately for using the washing machine.
• NO major challenges while using university accommodation, which was around 500m away from University campus

• I opted for off-campus accommodation (calthrope court), which I found through the university's help (they mentioned off campus accommodation associated with university).
• The rent was £5304 (£99 per week) for the year, including utilities and internet. Finding accommodation was straightforward as I applied early.
• It's conveniently located near the campus, just a few minutes' walk. I recommend future students book early to secure a good spot.
