Accommodation
St Edmund’s College has considerable history and character, and has undergone several phases of development. Consequently the rooms are distributed in buildings of differing ages, and they are of varying sizes and levels of facilities.
We guarantee accommodation in college for all single undergraduates for the full length of their course. Postgraduate accommodation is allocated on a first-come, first-served basis once places have been confirmed.
About the Rooms
Single rooms in St Edmund’s are graded from 1 to 12. Grade 1 has the lowest rent and grade 12 has the highest. In general, grade 1 rooms are smaller and situated in the older buildings whilst those in grades 6 and above are generally larger, have en suite facilities and are situated in the newer buildings.
In 2019 the College opened a brand new accommodation development, Mount Pleasant Halls, which is on the main campus. This development consists of single en suite bedrooms and studios.
We are unable to show any of our accommodation to prospective students before they come into residence.
