University of Derby Accommodation for International Students

I was living in a private student accommodation (not owned by the university). It's called Abbey Lodge (part of Fresh Student Living company). It was reasonably priced (£79 per week) and had all the facilities you could ask for. Apart from being a little far from city center, it was a delight. I took a bronze room. It's 7 people on one flat, everyone gets their own room and share the kitchen and the washrooms. The kitchen was well equipped and the staff was really sweet. They conduct social events every month so you can have fun and meet new people.

I chose the university for the course because the course seemed very unique compared to other courses I was looking at. Plus the university is situated in the Midlands. I figured it will be more affordable to live there compared to places like London.
