The College Accommodation

Bay Campus accommodation for The College students

SEPTEMBER 2019 APPLICATIONS – NOW OPEN!

Accommodation is guaranteed for all of our September intake students, so you can be assured that you have a place to live, in high quality en suite study bedrooms, on Bay Campus, very near to The College academic building.

The way our students apply for accommodation has changed, and we are no longer using the Swansea University accommodation application Portal for our student intakes arriving from September 2019. Instead you will apply directly to The College, where you will receive a very personal service from the friendly College Accommodation Team.

Although a place is guaranteed, you will still need to complete an application, tell us about your accommodation preferences (if you have any), and then, when you receive your formal Accommodation Offer and contract from us, you will pay a deposit to confirm your place.

If you have any other accommodation questions please do not hesitate to contact us at the-college-accommodation@swansea.ac.uk.
