University of Ulster Housing Information 

Return to Ireland Housing Information Page 

Each campus offers highly integrated accommodations where you will live with British, Irish, and other American students.  While similarities exist between all four of the Ulster campuses, each individual campus – whether Jordanstown, Belfast, Coleraine, or Magee- has its own unique characteristics which helps provide a rewarding student experience.

All Ulster accommodations are self-catered and students should anticipate preparing their own meals and shopping at markets located a short commute of their flat. A small shop for little items is located on each campus. Self-service laundry facilities are available within the complex. Telephones are located in every flat for house to house calls only; calling cards are required for local and long distance calls.  Internet access is provided in each student bedroom.
