As a Queen Mary Summer School student, you will be offered a place on campus in our comfortable accommodation. You’ll have an en-suite single room in one of our self-catering flats, so you can meet other students and make friends while you are here.
Our modern campus is a peaceful oasis in a busy city, set beside the Regent’s Canal, looking on to Mile End Park. It has a friendly, relaxed atmosphere: with plenty of greenery and attractive outdoor spaces here, so it’s easy to forget that you’re in the middle of a busy capital city. We hope that it will soon feel like your London home.
Our campus has a friendly community of staff and students, and is noted for its safety and convenience. You’ll just be a short walk away from your classes. On campus, we also have two grocery shops, four cafés, two restaurants, a bar, a health and fitness centre, a bookshop and a bank. As a Summer School student, you will have full access to all of these facilities.
Queen Mary is also located in the heart of London’s East End – arguably London’s most vibrant neighbourhoods! Click here to find out more.
Each of our rooms are single, en-suite rooms with a shared kitchen. Each room comes with a bed, wardrobe, desk and chair, mini-fridge and bathroom. Please note that bedding and towels are not provided. You are welcome to bring your own, or purchase a linen pack from the Residences team.
Please note that there will be no catering equipment provided in your shared kitchen.
There will also be a deep-clean of the communal areas (kitchen and hallways) once a week.
You will be provided with free Wi-Fi.
On-campus accommodation costs approximately £500 per session.
Please note that you are welcome to book a room for dates that suit you, at an additional cost of approximately £24 per night.

Breakfast only - £105
Breakfast plus one main meal - £295

I was very satisfied with the campus location because it wasn't in the middle of all the tourism/large crowds of people. It was very calming to return to it at the end of the day.— Eleanor Skladman from the USA, British Horror and Fantasy Cinema, and London Performance Past and Present
