University of Leeds Acommodation Questions

What is it like having postgrads in your flat as a first year student

This is a duplicate message because I wasn't sure where best to post but,
Hi, I was just wondering if anyone on here was thinking about putting down Carlton Hill as their preferred accommodation. New pictures, prices etc..are on the website and there is more in depth info on unipol site. It looks amazing with 6 sky lounges, roof terrace etc.. but with it being new I'm worried it may be really quiet or have a majority of international students( I don't mind the international aspect, I just know some groups tend to stay within their own community and I would want to be social). At the moment I'm thinking Central Village or Cityside but just curious to see if anyone is thinking about venturing into the unknown too? 🤔

Yh, I wanted to apply privately but they're fully booked but have put them down as first choice with uni, if I don't get that then they will hopefully get carlton hill. I know they try to match up where your priorities are if you don't get your first choice. Like last year a lot that put down James Bailee got Devonshire as its next door. Charles morris, some that were unsuccessful got Henry price and ellerslie global, again due to location, price etc.. its a bit of a lottery but there are often group chats beforehand to meet your flatmates. It is what you make it at the end of the day. I'm sure you'll love white rose though! It looks amazing. Did you book it a long time ago? What floor, size flat did you go for? Jealous now :biggrin:

Hey! Maybe call them and ask to reserve privately on the waiting list because people do drop out in August. My brother is there now so he has told me everything and i have gone to stay there, Trust me its worth applying for the waiting-list. I booked it 3 weeks ago and managed to get the last room. Im on floor 9 with 8 people, 2 undergrad boys and 2 undergrad girls including me. 2 postgrad girls and 1 postgrad boys. It is an interesting mix of ages so i hope everything works out fine. I also hope they are all social too.

Hi everyone! International medical student entering Leeds in September this year, looking for recommendations for student halls, as well as things to look out for when choosing accommodation as a medical student in Leeds. Ideally, also somewhere affordable and fuss-free with good atmosphere and socials. Thanks in advance and looking forward to starting in Leeds! :biggrin:

I still haven't booked my accommodation for Leeds yet. I want to be on the campus with self catered, ensuite but I don't know which accommodation is best.
It's really surprised me about the amount of undergraduates that have booked private accommodation for their first year, I didn't even know that was a thing that undergrads did so I have missed applying for those types of private accommodation now because they are all sold out.
Can anyone recommend the nicest on campus accommodation which isn't too expensive please?

Hi, international student here. I got an offer to continue my master (MSc Stats) at leeds. However, I am not sure on where to look for affordable accommodation. My monthly income per month will be around 800-1200 pounds
