University Hall

University Hall is a large hall with a lively, friendly atmosphere. It is a short walk or cycle to the Heath Park Campus and less than 2 miles from the Main Campus. The University has a bus service operating between University Hall and both the Main Campus and Heath Park Campus which provides students with transport throughout the day, Monday to Friday (term time only). This service is provided as part of the residences package for University Hall, so you do not need to pay each time you use the University bus service.
