which area is best to live in Edinburgh as a postgrad?
Hey,
I have an offer to study medical anthropology at Edinburgh Uni. Just wondered which university accommodation is closest to lectures, centre, shops, clubs, and is still nice? I want self-catered but share common area with minimum 4 or 5 other people (up to 10). Would appreciate any help! :-) Thanks! -

Would you not think about private renting? being a post grad I would have thought it would have been cheaper to rent if you go just outside of the city centre your looking at 350-400pcm for a 1 bedroom private rent with the bus services that edinburgh offer it doesnt take long to get back into the centre of edinburgh

Re: which area is best to live in Edinburgh as a postgrad?Unless you are from outside of the EU then as a postgrad you will not be guaranteed accommodation anyway. I would strongly suggest you start making alternative arrangements because even if you apply for university owned accommodation the chances of you actually being allocated anything is extremely slim.(Original post by beemie)
