Student flats & studios to rent in Preston
A thriving and bustling city with UCLAN at its heart, Preston is a really happening place for vibrant student life.
Most students will be looking for shared flats and houses in Preston starting in October. In recent years, we have seen a surge in international students taking up most of the accommodation available for students in Preston.
However, some excellent and centrally located private flats will still be available. Students who want a secure, personal space for living and studying with the flexibility for groups of students loving and working together should consider the accommodation at The Jazz Bar and The Guild Tavern.
The amount you pay will depend on the type of student accommodation you choose.
A private student flat in Preston with a double bed, en-suite shower and toilet will cost you £103 per week. A larger ground-floor flat with kitchen facilities costs around £154 per week.
By comparison, halls of residence at UCLAN might cost around £108 per week, but could cost more when you add in utilities or services – and for larger rooms.
Metro Student Accommodation has an excellent range of self-contained and private flats in Preston, all within easy reach of UCLAN.
These flats include studio apartments and provide double beds, all with en-suite bathrooms and toilets. Metro also offers combinations of flats where everyone has their own private bathroom and living space, as well as a communal kitchen and living room for entertaining and socialising. These are ideal for groups of students that want to share accommodation but prefer a private bedroom and en-suite bathroom.
In Preston, students must start their accommodation search early to avoid disappointment. Students wishing to book accommodation for UCLAN should contact Metro Student Accommodation from October onwards.
Metro makes it easy for second-year and third-year students to search and book their perfect flat or studio apartment.

On average, most students will pay a deposit of £100 per person and up to around £186.
At the end of your tenancy period, if your room and communal areas are in the same condition as when you moved in, you will get your deposit back promptly and in full.
