Hostels and Lodgings

Some registered charities run small hostels, especially for students with particular religious affiliations or those who come from specific overseas countries.

• These are mainly in London and further details can be found in the British Council publication, Studying and Living in the UK.

Small numbers of students live in lodgings where they might share a home with the landlord and his family.

• A study bedroom and some meals are usually provided but other facilities might well be shared.
• This is often the preference of international students who are looking to experience home life in the UK and improve their language skills.
