  • I chose to live on campus because it provided convenience, security, and quick access to university resources. Compared to external searches on sites like Zoopla, Rightmove, Facebook groups, or student accommodation sites, I got my room through the University of Surrey's official housing page, which made the process simple. As could be expected for ensuite university housing, the monthly fee was somewhat expensive, but the price included amenities like Wi-Fi, kitchen, heating, electricity, maintenance assistance, laundry access, and close proximity to the library and other campus buildings.
  • There are only a handful of desired room types, and that was one of the biggest obstacles because rooms fill up rapidly, and it was occasionally difficult to make a decision when comparing costs with off-campus options. I would advise future students to apply early, carefully compare all room types, and look into backup options from reputable student housing organisations as well as university housing. In my opinion, staying on campus as they are comparatively affordable than other options.
  • The majority of Indian students typically prefer to stay either on campus or in adjacent locations like Manor Park, Ash Grove, or Guildford town centre, depending on availability and expense. My accommodation was within a short walk from the college (approximately 1 minute), which saved a lot of traveling time.

  • It was on-campus accommodation. I found it on their website only and it was cheaper than private. The monthly rent was 450 pounds. We got a personal room and shared a bathroom and kitchen. I would say for my university.
  • On-campus accommodation was cheaper than private but in London it’s the opposite. So I would say it is reliable as well, but in private you might face some fraud sometimes

As a finance student, I have strategically chosen to study in the UK particularly because London being one of the best global financial centres. In my quest for a Master’s in Finance, I opted for the University of Surrey because it is reputed to be among the best business schools in Britain, in proximity to London and has great facilities.The university has a balanced experience with quality education and many extracurricular activities intertwined. It also offers several scholarships which entice students from other countries hence making it an appealing place to pursue one’s education. Moreover, this institution celebrates all major festivals including those that are important to Indian students thus providing a warm environment for them.
