For me the best thing about living in student accommodation is it’s a great way to make friends as it’s such a social and friendly environment. The most challenging thing is having to cook and clean for yourself. Raphael Rodely Residential Assistant

TRAVEL ADVICE AND PARKING For advice on travelling to our campuses, please see ljmu.ac.uk/opendays/directions As we are located in the heart of Liverpool city centre, there is unfortunately no onsite parking at the University. There are, however, plenty of car parking options in the immediate area within easy walking distance. The locations of local public car parks are shown on the map on page 39. For more information on council car parks, please see liverpool.gov.uk/parking/council-car-parks There are also a number of nearby NCP car parks. Please see ncp.co.uk/find-a-car-park
ROAD AND BUILDING WORKS A number of highway improvement works are taking place in the city centre, which may have an impact on your journey. If you are travelling via Lime Street Station, student helpers will be available to provide directions and to let you know the best way to walk to the relevant building. For further details on how roadworks may impact your journey, please refer to ljmu.ac.uk/opendays/directions LJMU continues to grow and we have a number of exciting projects underway to develop our facilities. For this reason, you may need to access some buildings using an alternative entrance. Student helpers will be on hand and there will be plenty of signage to help you to navigate around our campuses. To learn more about our exciting developments, please see ljmu.ac.uk/about-us/estates-development
The information in this planner is correct at the time of going to press (October 2019). However, some changes will inevitably occur in the interval between publication and the academic year to which the planner relates and the University reserves the right to withdraw or make alterations to the courses and facilities if necessary. Applicants should therefore use this planner in conjunction with the University website, which we shall maintain and keep up-to-date.
