Accommodation at Lincoln

Your New Home from Home

To help you find your new home from home and live your best student life, we offer a great range of high quality accommodation at sought-after locations in the heart of the city.

All of our accommodation is either on campus or a short distance away, which means that almost everything you could need is right on your doorstep. So whether you are attending lectures and seminars, wanting to use our on-campus learning spaces and the library, or are heading into the city centre to grab a bite to eat and socialise with friends, it’s all just a few minutes’ walk from your new home.

There are a variety of options to suit different needs and budgets whether you're joining us as an undergraduate or postgraduate student, and our Accommodation Services Team is on hand throughout the year to help new and returning students find a great place to live.

Our accommodation has been awarded an overall Global Student Living GOLD Certification by the Global Student Living Index. This certification is awarded based on the assessment of our accommodation's condition and quality, bedrooms, value for money, care and support, recycling and environmental facilities, and overall management and internet.
