MMU Welcome Week Guide - Manchester Metropolitan University

living in
halls
Living in halls of residence can
be a fantastic way to meet new
people and make new friends but
it can also bring its own unique
challenges. Get to know your
flatmates and be prepared for a
little bit of compromise along the
way. Everyone’s different and that’s
the beauty of it - embrace the
change because it’s all part of your
experience.
MMU halls have wardens and
residential advisors who live on site
to help you with any problems or
questions you might have.
