How many times do I have to say it? UCL campuses should be searched separately! Live separately!
Although everyone is from UCL, there is still some distance between different campuses.
If you are in the East Campus and you find an apartment labeled UCL Commute XXX, thinking it's close, don't get too excited, as it may not be in the same location as you. 🌝
So when looking for housing, it's important to focus on the campus rather than the university, as it is quite common for universities in the UK to have multiple campuses.
But don't worry, I have sorted out the student apartments for each UCL campus, so you can choose directly.
🏫Main Campus:
1. Scape Bloomsbury
400m to campus
Good appearance
Surrounded by Chinese supermarkets, banks, cinemas, London Zoo, British Museum, Victoria Park
Room types include studio, 2b, twin
2. iQ Bloomsbury
170m to campus
No different from living right at the school gate
Rooms with large floor-to-ceiling windows, good lighting
Room types include ensuite and studio
3. Scape Kings Cross
500m to campus
Relatively large rooms, good layout. Some rooms have separate beds and living rooms
Staying in a studio feels like living in a 1B
4. Drapery Place
Direct subway access
Rare student apartments with air conditioning
Emphasizes cost-effectiveness
Some rooms also have large floor-to-ceiling windows
Room types include ensuite, 2B, studio
5. Vega
Direct subway access
Well-known and popular
High-rise building, newly built in 2021
Recommend choosing larger layouts
🏫East Campus:
Wick Park
1.2km to campus
New apartments this year, with breakfast coffee, and separate washing machines and dishwashers
Ensuite windows are not small either
Studio with two windows, great lighting
🏫Management School:
Lewisham Exchange

New apartment built in 2021, not old at all
Good room facilities, with large floor-to-ceiling windows
Free breakfast on weekdays, cleaning service every two weeks
Room types include ensuite and studio
The above only lists the nearby student apartments, and some further ones are not mentioned. Actually, being further away doesn't necessarily mean it's not good. Some have good facilities and lower prices, and distance doesn't always mean a bad location. I'll talk about those in the next issue.👋
