<strong>Cardiff</strong> has always attached great importance<br />

to the provision <strong>of</strong> student accommodation <strong>and</strong><br />

has invested heavily in recent years to provide<br />

some <strong>of</strong> the highest quality residences in the UK<br />

university sector. Most <strong>of</strong> the accommodation<br />

is located close to the academic buildings. All<br />

first year undergraduates (who apply during the<br />

normal admissions cycle) are guaranteed a place<br />

in university accommodation. There is a choice <strong>of</strong><br />

catered or self-catered residences.<br />

New residences have been built in recent<br />

years <strong>and</strong> many <strong>of</strong> the older ones have been<br />

refurbished to a high st<strong>and</strong>ard. The majority <strong>of</strong><br />

the 5,100 study/bedrooms have individual shower<br />

<strong>and</strong> toilet facilities <strong>and</strong> all halls <strong>of</strong> residence have<br />

computer network connection points.<br />

As well as managing <strong>University</strong> property, the<br />

Residences Office maintains close links with<br />

the private sector <strong>and</strong> helps students who are<br />

looking to rent or share houses or flats.<br />
