Frequently Asked Questions
Your housing application allows you to submit your preference of Room Type, not Residence Hall. All room allocations are made using a lottery system. For shared apartments, you will be allocated with other students from your program.
No. The Global Scholar, Semester In, and London Scholars program is a residential experience, so students are required to live in university sponsored housing during the program. Information about the housing process will be shared over the course of the summer, which will include how students can indicate housing preferences. These live-in opportunities will be structured and there will be live-in staff who are available 24/7 through various modes to ensure that students are supported in their personal and professional journeys.
When in London, residential buildings will have a full kitchen(mini fridge and stove top) in each student apartment. It is expected that students cook their own meals. This is typical for a UK college experience.
If you have questions about any aspect of the housing application process and/or about Residence Life, including pastoral support and event programming in our halls, you can join one of our drop-in sessions. This is also a great opportunity to meet members of NU London’s Residence Services team!
