University of Edinburgh Reviews and Ratings

• I was given University accomodation Called Ascham Court, which was a nice, comfortable accomodation near the main campus along the meadows. It had better privacy that flat like accomodations.
• Total yearly rent was 9350 for a year of stay. I do know there are plenty of private accommodations around the city as well.

• Accommodation was good- close to the uni but expensive. My rental was £650 per month in 2019. Things might have changed/updated now.

• I lived in Vita Student, which is private student accommodation, which cost me around £12000 for the whole year.

• Rent around 800 GBP / month. It was a student-provided accommodation and applied through their own portal. A single room and the usual facilities.

• The university arranged accommodation in a flat with a monthly rent of approximately 500 gbp.

• Uni accommodation is costly. Go for rented apartments with friends slightly far from Uni, and it can go up to £300 - £400 a month. I found the apartments from the Fb groups

• I was looking for University accommodations, so I looked up on the university website. My monthly rent is around 745 pounds, and it's an en-suite accommodation.
• The challenge one might face is that it is difficult to find affordable accommodation here. If you are looking for accommodation at a lower rent, then you might have to go for a sharing accommodation. Or you can come here and look for flats to share but that is a risky move if you have no connections here.
• My accommodation is around 15 mins walking distance from the university. The city is pretty much walkable so that is of no issue. There are many Indian students in the University accommodation.

• It was a university accommodation. When you get an offer of acceptance, you get an option to apply for accommodation on the university website.
• The accommodation I got was really nice and very modern. The amenities were great. However, the only catch was that it was a little bit far from the university compared to other accommodations.
• I would recommend students to apply early for accommodation, as the best ones get filled early. Also, I stayed in a twin room to save costs but this is a personal decision.
• My accommodation was 25 minutes by bus from the college. Indian student population was found in every accommodation.

• I found my accommodation using the University website. It was a University accommodation. The monthly rent was around 670 GBP for an en-suite room with a shared kitchen (shared among 11 people). Since I applied timely, I didn't find the process of finding accommodation challenging. However, if applied later, it can get pretty tough as flats in good locations go out pretty fast. So, my recommendation is to apply as timely as one can. Student accommodations also provide University-led teams that manage the property, which might help make the process easier. My accommodation was a 7-minute walk from my school's building. There is no specific region where most Indians stay and they are scattered across the city.

I chose Edinburgh because I have been here before and l love the city. Plus, the university has great resources and a fascinating history. The faculty is renowned and the research put is also great.
