Guaranteed accommodation
As a campus university, Keele has over 2,600 bedrooms on site, with a range of accommodation offers available and all within a short walk of the centre of campus, to suit your budget.
We offer guaranteed accommodation on campus for September entry undergraduate and postgraduate applicants who make Keele their firm choice, and who apply for accommodation by the deadline date 30 June.
We also guarantee on-campus accommodation for all September entry international students who apply by 30 June, with the option to live on campus for the duration of your course.
We are also able to offer guaranteed accommodation on campus for January 2026 new entrants, who make Keele their firm choice and who apply for the accommodation by Friday 5 December 2025. Please note, our adapted rooms are fully occupied and we are therefore unable to offer any adapted accommodation for the January 2026 intake. If you require an adapted room, please email our Student Accommodation team who will be happy to support you in finding suitable off campus accommodation.
