Queen's Accommodation

Important / Key Dates 2026-27

*  Please refer to your offer of accommodation for your contract start date as there can be variations to contract start dates .

Accommodation for students with families 

The University has a limited number of self-contained flats for students with partners and families and demand for these can be high, especially at the start of term.

Please contact us as soon as you accept a course at Queen's and have an approximate arrival date to ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ; we can then discuss your requirements for accommodation to establish if we have availability to match these.

If we do not have suitable accommodation available, we will support you in finding alternative accommodation in the private rental sector close to the University. 

We strongly advise that you do not bring your family to Northern Ireland until you have found accommodation for them. There is currently a very high demand for suitable family accommodation in Northern Ireland and ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ in particular. This demand has caused significant delays in international students securing appropriate term-time housing for their families and an increase in monthly rental rates. 

Please note that all relevant information regarding personal circumstances including details of family/group members (including the number of adults and children) must be provided on the online accommodation application form. 

2-bedroom apartments start from £255 per week.

Private Sector Accommodation

A number of students, especially those with families, prefer to live in private rented accommodation close to the University. Please note that this can take time to arrange and it may be difficult to find a suitable place directly from overseas. Landlords often require references and a substantial deposit. You can view further information on renting private accommodation, including links to important advice on how to secure private accommodation by our international students.

Housing Hand - Guarantor Service

UK, EU and International students alike have found providing a qualifying UK guarantor a hurdle when renting in the private sector. Housing Hand has partnered with Queen's University ¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ to alleviate this issue for students.

Housing Hand stands as the guarantor for the students, who are unable to provide one. You can use Housing Hand to help you with both Queen's Accommodation and privately rented accommodation.
