Accommodation

Home from Home

Choosing to stay in University accommodation is more than just a place to sleep — it’s your gateway to new friendships, unforgettable experiences, and a supportive community that feels like home. With our dedicated Residence Life team always on hand, you’ll have the freedom to grow independently, with the reassurance that help is never far away.

Each UWS campus offers a range of comfortable, self-catered living options. Whether you prefer the social buzz of a shared flat or the privacy of a studio, our Ayr and Paisley campuses have something to suit your lifestyle. All accommodation is located close to campus facilities and local amenities, providing a safe, welcoming environment in the heart of the west of Scotland.

Students attending the UWS London Campus generally find their own accommodation, either in the form of a private let or privately managed residence.

I love everything about UWS residence. The security system at Storie Street is top-notch, the events and activities organized in the residence to encourage diversity was a wonderful one among others.

They are nice and welcoming, always smiling, ready to listen to me and sort my problems.
