As an N.U.in Scotland student, you will reside in Kelvinhaugh Street residence. All rooms are furnished with a bed, desk, lamp, chair, closet, storage shelves, and a bookshelf. Students will live in a 5-person or 3-person apartment or “flat” that will have individual bedrooms, a common living area, a kitchen, a shower room, and toilet facilities. There are on-site laundry facilities available to students. Kelvinhaugh Street is a 15-minute walk to the central campus and is close to the City Center and West End. All students are required to live in N.U.in program housing for the duration of the program.
Amenities: Each student will receive one set of bed linen which includes: a mattress protector, sheet, duvet and cover, pillow, and pillowcase. Each flat is also provided a kitchen kit that has cookware, cutlery, and tableware.
Common Areas: Directly across from the Kelvinhaugh Street residences, students can access Cairncross House, which offers a small common area for studying or socializing throughout the semester. On campus, students also have the option to book study spaces or private rooms for group work. A popular choice is the James McCune Smith Learning Hub, which features two cafes, bookable rooms for group study, a prayer and reflection space, print stations, and more.
Meals: As an N.U.in student, you will add cooking to your repertoire! At N.U.in Scotland, accommodations are all equipped with kitchenettes, as meal plans are not a part of university life there. You’ll also have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the local culture, exploring nearby grocery stores, international food markets, cafes, and more with your peers.
Laundry: There is a laundry room located in the building for use. Machines are operated through an app or by card with charges and instructions displayed within each room.
Mail: The process of receiving mail will be reviewed by the on-site time during orientation in Glasgow.
Fitness: At the University of Glasgow, UofG Sport offers a wide range of student membership options, including access to our premium gym facilities, fitness classes, swimming pool, indoor cycling, Club Sport and more. Please wait to sign up for a membership until on-site orientation, as you will learn more about pricing and using your UofG email to create an account.
In the community you can find many specific fitness options including indoor Olympic-sized pools, private trainers, pilates classes, spinning classes and more. There is also the local Glasgow Club located at Kelvin Hall which offers low cost monthly memberships and access to indoor courts, group fitness studios and classes, and the largest fitness gym in the city.
