Accommodation

Dorm Life

Residents on the Kensington campus may choose between single, double, triple, or quad dorm room arrangements.  These rooms come in a variety of configurations with very few rooms looking alike.  Many are equipped with sinks and all include desks, wardrobes and bureaus.

Atlantic House

Atlantic House is undoubtedly the hub of daily life in Kensington for both
on and off campus students.

In addition to serving as a residence hall it also boasts a library, cafeteria, three computer labs, a large common room, photo studio, the student affairs offices, campus security, and the mail room.

The common room and computer labs provide a relaxing atmosphere in which on campus and off campus students watch movies, read books, shoot pool, and enjoy their free time.

Ambassador House

26-28 Queen’s Gate Terrace, home to Richmond’s Ambassador House Residence, sits on one of the most impressive streets in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.

This facility is only a short walk from Atlantic House, but maintains an identity all its own, providing on campus accomodation in an unmistakably London environment.

Residents are within close proximity of the Glouster Road Underground station, the Natural History Museum, local bars and restaurants, and Hyde Park.

Courtfield Gardens and Collingham Gardens

Located in Earls Court, a short 15 minute walk from Atlantic House, the Courtfield and Collingham facilities are the two self catering residence halls on the Kensington campus.

All rooms include en-suite bathrooms and kitchens with free washing facilities. These buildings are equipped with wireless internet, mail service, and a common room with a television.

Students in these dorms enjoy a sense of independence while also maintaining close ties to the university and on campus life, providing the feel of off-campus living with the convenience of a University administered building.
