Students in the on-campus accommodation

Student Accommodation

*Update 11/02/25* - A small number of places are available in single and shared twin rooms from February 2025 until 31 May 2025.  Please contact us to discuss suitability at residences.perth@uhi.ac.uk and include your student ID number.*

Our on-campus student accommodation provides safe, secure, and comfortable housing for 78 UHI Perth students in fully furnished shared self-catered flats and cottages.  Students who choose to stay in our accommodation are treated as adults and should be ready for independent living.  This means our students keep their rooms clean, do their own laundry, cook for themselves, and contribute to keeping communal areas tidy. Our trained accommodation team are based on-campus 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to provide assistance and support to students.

We offer a let period of 9 months which follows the academic year from September to June.  You must agree to let a room for the full academic year, and you are welcome to stay during October, December, and April recess breaks. Find out more about applying for student accommodation.
