Halls of residence
There are 16 undergraduate halls of residence to choose from, all of which are on (or very close to) campus.
If you make Loughborough University your firm choice and register for accommodation before the end of July, we will guarantee you a room in University accommodation. International students from outside the EU are guaranteed hall accommodation within the same hall for any two years of their undergraduate study.
Each room contains a bed, storage, desk, chair, shelves and a noticeboard. You will also have access to laundry facilities, bike storage, a common room, and the internet, plus the support of a fantastic Warden and hall committee team who ensure that hall life remains supportive and fun for everyone.
In total there are seven catered halls and nine self-catered halls at Loughborough. Our communal dining halls for catered students are a traditional part of the Loughborough experience. Having meals with your friends is a great social activity and is often a more cost-effective option.
We are committed to providing healthy, varied and homecooked options across all dining halls, so there is something to suit all tastes. Students in self-catered halls can purchase discounted meals in dining halls and there are numerous retail outlets scattered across campus. Off campus there are several large grocery stores located nearby, including a Tesco, Aldi and Sainsbury’s.
Our halls offer a safe environment and are renowned for being the best place to start your university life. Whichever one becomes your home, you’ll remember being part of it forever.
