Student accommodation

As student cities, Brighton and Manchester have a whole host of great accommodation options, as well as a good public transport system with excellent links to London, and the ability to get around easily without a car.

ICTheatre benefits from centralised college locations, meaning wherever you choose to live, your journey will be direct and straightforward.

Whether you decide to live in a flat, shared house or even on a part-board basis with a family, there’s plenty to choose from – although accommodation does fill up fast, so we advise you start investigating as soon as you can.

Whilst we don’t yet have our own halls of residence at ICTheatre, but we’re committed to helping you find somewhere to live.

Available student accommodation options include:

• Dedicated student housing
• Private landlords
• House share opportunities
• Part-boards with families

When you apply to ICTheatre, we will send you an information pack which will include details of your accommodation options.

Brighton

Joint Lettings Agency is dedicated to ensuring that tenants have an exceptional living experience in newly renovated, interior-designed shared houses and is focused on improving their well-being through a small, friendly & supportive team.

Maintenance issues are reported through an easy-to-use app with a dedicated 48-hour response time; all bills are included, as well as a cleaner and gardener. One of their partners is Sound Asleep Club, a mediation app that all tenants get free access to, and they provide helpful guides such as monthly meal plans to assist with budgeting.

They offer low deposit and alternative guarantor options, welcome international and UK-based students and can accommodate groups and individuals.

Brighton student housing accommodation
  • We recommend viewing a property at least twice. You’ll be more likely to notice problems the second time around.
  • Take someone with you or let someone else know exactly where you are when you visit a property to err on the side of caution.
  • It’s also a good idea to visit the area at night. If you do this, please ensure you stick to the point above and take someone with you.
  • Make sure you and all your other housemates view the property. Don’t take someone else’s word that the property is right for you.
  • Compare a range of different landlords and properties
  • Take your time, and don’t let landlords pressure you – there is a surplus of suitable properties in the area, and you will find somewhere you like
  • When you go to view, take notes and photos and use our checklist to ensure you don’t miss anything.
  • Get informed – knowing your rights will help you view properties more critically and strengthen your negotiating position.
