What we cover

One search across the places students actually go

Rather than a single city or a single operator, uhomes.work brings study destinations, campuses and room formats into one place so you can compare properly before committing.

  • Study destinations

    Coverage focused on the cities international students shortlist most across the UK, United States, Australia, Canada and Asia.

  • Near your campus

    Every listing shows where it sits relative to your university, with walking and transit times so a short commute is a fact rather than a promise.

  • Every room format

    From a bed in a shared room to a studio or an entire flat with friends, filtered by what you can spend rather than what is left over.

Popular destinations

Where students are booking

Start from the city you have an offer in, then narrow down by campus, room type and budget.

Studying somewhere not listed? Tell us the university and intake month — sourcing a new city is part of the job.

Top rated

Most booked this intake

The residences students shortlist most often, city by city. Distances are measured to the nearest campus, and every one on this list has been checked in person.

Weekly rents are shown in US dollars so you can compare cities side by side. Contracts are signed and paid in the property’s local currency, so the dollar figure moves with the exchange rate.

Room types

Pick the format that fits how you live

Budget, privacy and how sociable you want your year to be usually decide this. Here is what the labels actually mean.

Shared room

Shared room

A bed in a room shared with one or more students. The cheapest way to live centrally, and the fastest way to meet people in week one.

En-suite room

En-suite room

Your own lockable room with a private bathroom, sharing only the kitchen and living space. The most common choice in purpose-built student housing.

Non-en-suite room

Non-en-suite room

A private bedroom with a shared bathroom down the hall. Usually the best value per square metre if you do not mind queueing occasionally.

Studio

Studio

A self-contained flat — bed, kitchenette and bathroom behind one door. Costs more, and worth it if you need quiet to work.

1-2 bed apartment

1–2 bed apartment

A full apartment for yourself or with a partner or one friend. Separate bedrooms, shared kitchen and living room.

3-5+ bed apartment

3–5+ bed apartment

Book a whole flat as a group. Per-person rent drops sharply, but you sign together — so agree on who pays what before you apply.

Why book through us

Let us handle the housing while you get on with the move

Signing a tenancy in a country you have never lived in is where most of the stress sits. These four things are what we hold ourselves to.

01

Checked before it goes live

We confirm the property, the operator and the terms before a listing appears, so you are not chasing an address that does not exist.

02

Room-level detail, before you commit

Room number, floor, aspect, floor plan and who you would be sharing with. These are the details that decide whether a year works.

03

Find it cheaper, we match it

If the same room is listed for less elsewhere on comparable terms, tell us and we will match the price rather than argue about it.

04

Someone awake in your timezone

Housing questions rarely arrive during office hours. One conversation, and you are not explaining your situation from scratch each time.

How it works

Three steps, and the paperwork is our problem

No week-long email threads. You choose, we process, you pack.

Step 01

Browse and shortlist

Filter verified rooms by city, campus, room type and budget. Compare two or three properly instead of taking the first one that replies.

Step 02

Apply through us

Documents, guarantor questions and the back-and-forth with the operator sit with your consultant, not with you.

Step 03

View, confirm, sign

Walk the property in person or over video with a consultant. Deposit, break clause and what happens if your visa slips get explained before you sign.

Support

Someone in the city, before and after you sign

Booking from another continent means the questions keep coming after you have signed. Support runs from the first enquiry through to the week you arrive.

  • One consultant across your whole booking, so context is never lost in a handover
  • Tenancy terms, deposits and break clauses explained before you sign anything
  • Move-in guidance: keys, arrival windows, what to bring and what is already there
  • Still reachable after you move in, if something about the room is not as described
