Homestay

Homestay gives you the extra security of living with a family, couple or single person in the local area who have been endorsed by the university. The scheme is particularly popular with our international students and is able to accommodate varying length of stays, from two weeks up to a whole academic year.

Homestay is only available in the Brighton area where there is demand for the service, whether you are studying at the university or you are on a placement as part of your course. Rooms can be provided on a self-catered or catered basis, depending on whether you want to have your meals cooked for you. We also have shared rooms if you know another student you want to share with.

If you're interested in applying for Homestay, phone us on 01273 644100 or email us at accommodation@brighton.ac.uk. Our accommodation team can advise on availability and help you to find a suitable host.
