Is accommodation provided by universities or do students stay outside in UK/USA?

Yes, universities in both the UK and USA offer accommodation options for students.
- On-campus housing (dormitories or halls of residence) is commonly available, especially for first-year and international students. Availability may be limited, so applying early is important.
- Off-campus housing (private apartments or shared houses) is also widely chosen, offering more independence and sometimes lower costs depending on the location.
Your choice depends on university policy, budget, and personal preference.
