Cardiff University

We have a range of accommodation to suit individual preferences and budgets.

Both undergraduates and postgraduates (arriving in September) are guaranteed a single occupancy room and new undergraduates will be allocated with other first year students.

Accommodation in university residences is also guaranteed for international students.

Our Residence Life Team are available to help ensure you have the best possible time whilst staying in our accommodation.

They are committed to providing a warm welcome and helping you to make a smooth transition into university.

Our libraries hold over 1.1 million printed books, and provide access to more than 1.5 million online books, journals and resources.

We also hold a range of unique and historical print collections, archives, and online resources to support learning and research.

We provide a range of spaces to accommodate a variety of learning styles with 13 libraries across our campuses.

From silent areas to social study spaces, we are sure you’ll find a place to study that suits you perfectly.

After enrolling you will have access to the student intranet where you will find a range of IT support, tools, and resources to help in your study, including access to free anti-virus software and a free subscription to Microsoft Office while you're studying here.

You can also access the University-wide wireless network, computer suites, an IT clinic, training and workshops.

Having a GP (general practitioner) in Cardiff means you can easily access care and medication if you need it.

You will need to find a local GP surgery and contact them about registering with the practice.

You will normally be able to drop into the surgery and ask to register. GP surgeries have catchment areas, so we recommend you search for a local GP practice by using your postcode.

Our brand-new Centre for Student Life is a one-stop hub for all your student needs and the Health and Wellbeing team offer a range of services to help students look after their physical and mental wellbeing during their time at university.
