What is University of Edinburgh accommodation like?
You have a choice of accommodation type when you come to Edinburgh. You can stay in the university’s main halls of residence, Pollock Halls, where about 1,900 students live in single study bedrooms on a full board basis. Many of these rooms have their own bathrooms. Or you could live in a university self-catering flat which normally accommodates between 4 and 6 people. A third option is to stay in a student house. The accommodation services at the University of Edinburgh guarantee all students in their first year at the university from outside the Edinburgh area a place in University accommodation. For the rest of your time at the university most students like to find a flat or a house to rent with their friends. The accommodation services will help here too.
