Booking your room at University of Birmingham is easier than ever before. Rather than us allocating your accommodation, you can now choose the exact room to suit you, ensuring you feel at home from day one.
Enjoy the best of The Vale without even heading outdoors. Just downstairs from your flat you’ll find The Shack, a relaxed lounge where you can settle in for board games, great conversation, and food and drinks from around the world. With easy‑to‑use ordering screens and plenty of cosy seating, it’s the perfect place to unwind, catch up with friends, and enjoy something delicious.
You’ll also have a Costcutter supermarket on hand for everyday essentials, and Shackleton’s Student Mentors are based right here too, making it simple to get support whenever you need it.
Upgrade to Student Living Plus, our answer to catered accommodation. You can do this through our Accommodation Portal at any time during the academic year, so long as you have booked a room with us.
