Accommodation

There are three types of accommodation available to students at Shrivenham:

1. Single rooms on campus in
Officers' Mess accommodation
2. Married Quarters
3. Rented accommodation

The first two categories are available to British military students. Although military students from overseas are not entitled to occupy these types of accommodation, they may able to do so if there is spare capacity. This option is not open to civilian students but we can assist in finding rooms or houses to rent in the local area.

Apart from your Course coordinator, there are specific members of staff who can help and advise you.
