A good range of accommodation is available for new postgraduate students, with first priority normally given to international students. As demand from international students is expected to be particularly high for the session 2008/9 we do not expect to be able to offer places in accommodation to home postgraduate students.  To offset this, home postgraduate students will be eligible to apply for one of the positions of Welfare Wardens (16 positions in total) or Senior Welfare Wardens (2 positions). It is also anticipated that a small number of reduced fee places will be available to home postgraduate students acting in a Senior Student capacity in designated international flats (approx 3 positions).  The University will offer all other postgraduate students assistance in finding suitable private sector accommodation.

The University offers the following choice of accommodation for each category of Postgraduate student:-

There are a number of rooms suitable for visually impaired students and appropriate arrangements can be made in most residences for hearing-impaired students. Any student who has a disability or other special need, which may affect the allocation of accommodation, is encouraged to contact Residential Services and the Disability Office in Student Support Services as soon as their place at Swansea is confirmed.
