How will I get there?

You can choose to live on the university campus, a few streets away from the university or miles away.

Before you choose where to live, think about the time and money you will need to spend to travel to classes and other study areas, such as libraries or workshops. What seems like a reasonable trip, when you do it once or twice, can seem more difficult when you have to do it several times a week, so you might want to live somewhere close to the university.

If you need public transport, is it convenient, quick, affordable and regular?

If you have your own transport, is there anywhere to park, and how much will it cost you to park on campus or nearby?
