  • Leeds is a city of Universities (four in total) and the campuses are dispersed in the city. I first choose a University managed accommodation. This was through the support of the University staff and through the same application process. Check-in was easy and once I arrived, I figured out that renting private accommodation of various types was less expensive. Monthly rent through the four years for different kinds of accommodation was 400-700 GBP. Post Covid and the economic slump in the UK has affected these severely.
  • I would recommend looking for shared accommodation with a private bathroom. These are often the best. I would choose 3-5 room accommodations. People from different countries need different extents of heating. So ensure you have a separate heating/radiator control for your room. Do not hesitate to live with people from different countries – although don't be shocked to see cultural differences. When people live together, a lot of things that wouldn't matter would start getting more important.
  • I would also warn students to check the renting company and contract details to the last dot. These cannot be talked about or resolved when issues arise, as in India.
  • All my accommodations were 1-2 km from my University. All students, including Indian students who are there for more than a year, look for private accommodation. Students who come for a 10-month course often stay in University accommodation for students. These are more crowded, though nice if you like living with your friends.

The accommodation had an inbuilt gym, a recreational space, night-time security, a lobby, an elevator, a generator, and a laundry space, and the accommodation also held events for students in there for major holidays.

  • The Tannery Leeds was reasonably priced, offering en suite to all residents. Regular checks and testing of rooms and very responsive staff too. Found it through Amber Students and monthly rent inclusive of all bills was around £600.

  • I found my accommodation online with the help of sites such as reddit and google. Since I couldn't decide in time for on-campus accommodations, I had to pick a private one, but it did not make much difference, as most accommodations are pretty close to the campus. Rent was around £175 per week for a duration of a year.
