Where students live

Life in halls • ...it is quicker and cheaper to get to uni and everything is so near to the campus you don't

have to worry about getting home.‘

• 'Campus accommodation is safer and more trustworthy than an independent landlord for students‘

• 'I like the campus feel because you feel integral to the academic and social equilibrium, a part of the Keele family as opposed to a student who attends a uni with only external ties and no real sense of community.‘

• There's a brilliant community feel in Barnes & the common room & laundry facilities here, make it that much more of a home from home. One word: AWESOME!

• It's great, we're all friends and support each other and help each other out where necessary and, when going out, we all go out together so there is no coming home on your own.

• There is a wide range of people that you get to know and socialise with. The common room space is usually used during the evenings and weekends to watch the TV or just hang out with friends. People generally like living in halls as it's less hassle and there are no extra bills to pay. It feels like a home away from home. The hall I live in is very friendly and you get to know everyone quickly.
