Roof over the head !!

Buenos días everyone, I am here after a break, longer than expected but I am here anyways :) . Hope everyone is doing great and I would like to mention few things about accommodation as roof over the head is very essential and especially for international students who come here for studies. University recognizes this fact and provides lot of options to international students. There are many places around the University like John Leicester, Matthias court etc to cater the needs of students and these places serve the basic purpose. They are reasonably affordable and provide safe and secure environment for the students. There are shuttle services which provide transport facility and hence commuting is not an issue at all. The interesting thing about these accommodations the technology which they use to make it as secure as possible and I was quite impressed when I saw it the first time. As the wise men say - healthy mind in a healthy body, it is important for students to stay fit and agile. These accommodations provide fitness centre, baseball court and other facilities to help the students and these places are clean and tidy too. You also see fun activities going on during weekends which bring the students from different nationalities together and a great opportunity for bonding. Students staying out of these accommodations will definitely miss all this however there are options available outside as well. Since there are plenty of international students coming to Salford University it is not too difficult to find people from your place who can help you to get an accommodation. Since the University is well connected through public transport commuting is easy. There are also private accommodations available in various locations which are fairly economical. So there are lot of options depending on the choice and lifestyle of yours. Hence the message to prospective students – Don’t worry about accommodation there is lot of help available. On this note I sign off but will come back soon with lots of news and activities happening at the University, till then ciao :)
