Much More Than Just 4 Walls and a Bed

We have scoured the globe (literally) to understand what areas students often find challenging. Our research has indicated 9 common areas and challenges that students globally have to face. Meaning that wherever you come from and wherever you study, you need a student experience that is supportive and strives to enhance your university career.

The 9 areas of wellbeing...

Our teams

Our residential teams genuinely care about their student communities. Whilst they are not trained counsellors, they are great at listening (and making tea!) and taking the time to get to know their students. Together you'll create a thriving residential community.

Leadership opportunities

Resident Assistants

We believe that having students as part of our residential team is key to creating awesome residential communities. That is why we employ students as Resident Assistants; a paid, part-time role that fits around your studies. You'd be responsible for:

• Coordinating residential activities designed to promote wellbeing and help residents to better manage everyday challenges
• Develop partnerships in the local community
• Advocating a friendly, inclusive and supportive residential community

You'd be provided with a full induction and training programme as well as ongoing development opportunities. Many of our RAs stay with us for the duration of their University career and some even become full-time employees upon graduation.

Other leadership opportunities

If you don’t become a Resident Assistant, there are many other ways that you can contribute to the residential community. Several of our residences have elected student councils, peer-support programmes, out of hours and office support roles, as well as move-in, arrivals and welcome positions open to residents. If you would like to find out how you can apply for a community leadership role in your residence, please contact the residence directly. You are welcome to do this before you move-in!
