Student Life

Despite being one of the UK’s capitals, Belfast is one of the most affordable cities in the UK. Belfast has the lowest cost of living in the UK (Mercer Cost of Living City Ranking 2022) and the lowest student rent in the UK (NatWest Student Living Index 2020). Students in Belfast can expect to save over £300 per month living in Belfast compared to London (Which?

Belfast is really easy to get around, and the university’s campus being at the heart of the city helps make everything accessible. As well as the regular bus and train services, there is a public bicycle rental scheme if you want to get out and explore. It’s a welcoming, friendly and safe city. Northern Ireland was voted the safest region in the UK in the UK British Crime Survey 2019/20.

Shoppers will find a mix of major brand names and charming independents, while culture lovers will find a treasure trove of theatres, museums and galleries to explore. There truly is something for everyone when it comes to nightlife – from small, homely pubs to larger live music venues playing every genre, comedy clubs, drama performances, and more.
