KCL accommodation

All KCL first-year undergraduate students are guaranteed a place for their first year of study, with most students choosing to live in private accommodation from their second year.

One of the main benefits of attending university in a major city is the seemingly endless options for student accommodation both close to campus and further afield. KCL has a number of campuses all over London which means it’s important to find KCL accommodation that is close to your specific schedule. The campuses include Strand & Bush House Campus, Denmark Hill Campus, Waterloo Campus, Maughan Library Campus, and the main central London campus, Guy’s Campus. Each area has a great selection of accommodation for students to choose from like Northumberland House, which is a convenient option for student accommodation near the Strand campus. Or, if you’re looking for KCL student accommodation near Guy’s campus, check out iQ Bankside.

If you’d prefer to live outside of the buzz of central London, there are popular student areas with lots of comfortable student accommodation options. The most popular areas are in the east like Shoreditch, Dalston, or Hackney, or going south of the River Thames to areas like Brixton, Clapham, and Balham. Again it’s important to know which campus your schedule attends the most and choose accommodation according to budget, ease of commute, and the facilities that are important to you.
