HOUSING
Personal assessment
Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? It's more fun with other students
Personal comments:
You can find really cheap places, but if you want it to be nice it'll cost £40 - £50. Nice areas are Jesmond (+ expensive) Heaton and the Centre This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself
