We are running ongoing information sessions for incoming and current students to answer questions in using our online accommodation platform, Studentpad. We will also offer guidance on how to search for accommodation and use available online resources to help you secure suitable accommodation.
Studentpad is self-service facility offered by the University to help connect students and landlords. As such, students should be able to navigate the database property listings and appropriate adverts to search for room availablilty.
These sessions are generally tailored to the particular cohort of students currently searching for accommodation and so not all information covered will be relevant to students outside these cohorts.
Most of these sessions will be delivered online. In person sessions will be hosted in the Student Services building (see No.1 on the map displaying Student Services here). Look out for the cogs on the windows of the Student Services building!
Upcoming Student Information Session Dates and Times: TBC
