Rented Accommodation
If you would prefer to stay in your own flat, rented accommodation can be cheaper than living in student halls. Rent and utility bills will usually be separate, but the costs can be shared between 1-4 people depending on the size of the flat.
Looking for flatmates? Websites such as Spare Room, Gumtree, and Room Go can help to connect you with other students.
Areas such as Partick, Dennistoun, and Kelvinside are popular for students, or it can be less expensive to stay in Paisley or areas further from the city centre.
There are many great areas of Glasgow to live in, and the city has good public transport links by bus, train and subway.
