Hi everyone
I recently got accepted into the University of Manchester for a postgraduate program in Creative and Cultural Industries, and I’m about to apply for accommodation.
I’m trying to decide which halls to choose. I’d prefer somewhere:
- clean and well-maintained (especially shared spaces like kitchens)
- not too noisy
- but still somewhat social
My budget is around £200 per week.
I’m an international student and LGBTQ+, so having a diverse, respectful and inclusive environment is really important to me.
Also:
- Are university halls better than private accommodation for postgrads?
- Which areas feel safest and most comfortable to live in?
- How clean are shared kitchens usually in these halls?
Any advice or personal experiences would be really appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
