For new students

For new students who want to live in halls of residence, we offer a wide choice of accommodation, with everything from hotel-style en-suite rooms to more traditional budget rooms.

• In Manchester, you’ll find an excellent choice of residential accommodation in 7 university-owned or leased halls.
• In Cheshire, we offer a choice of en-suite bedrooms and traditional halls with shared facilities.

Welcome to your own space

Whether you choose Manchester or Cheshire, we’ll do our best to help all full-time first year students who apply to find a place in an MMU hall or private accommodation.

You can apply online for your place in a hall as soon as you have firmly accepted your university offer to help secure your preferred choice of accommodation.

Safety and Security

All halls of residence have a 24 hour security presence, so that you can feel safely at home in your new space.

This is the University’s source of student accommodation and provides everything you need from information on halls and the private sector to housing advice.

Private Accommodation

If you’re applying for private accommodation in Manchester you’ll also find it helpful to look at the Manchester Student Homes website, which includes information on popular areas, a tenant's guide, and contract help.

A list of private rental accommodation for students in Crewe can be found on the Studentpad website or the MMU Cheshire Studentpad website.
