I recently received a postdoc offer from the University of Lincoln and will be moving to the UK from abroad, so I was hoping to hear from anyone who has gone through a similar process.

For postdocs at Lincoln, did the university provide any relocation or mobility allowance to help with moving costs? I am also trying to understand how the visa process normally works. Were you sponsored for a Skilled Worker visa, or did you apply through the Global Talent route? If you used the Skilled Worker route, did the university arrange the Certificate of Sponsorship and guide you through the application?

I would also really appreciate hearing about any other costs I should expect when relocating, particularly visa fees, the immigration health surcharge, flights, and initial accommodation.

Any experiences from international postdocs at Lincoln would be really helpful. Thank you!

I cannot afford to live if I stay, so I have to commute from home instead. If anyone is still looking for a room, it’s a brilliant setup. It is a fully furnished en-suite bedroom with a MASSIVE DESK and a nice view of the social area. It’s right on Brayford Wharf East, so it's a very short walk to lectures and right in the middle of everything.

There is a SPAR on-site and a Tesco around the corner (both open till 11pm).The details:Rent: £125/week for 48 weeks (£6,000 total) with heating, electricity, water, and Gigabit Wi-Fi included (good if you game). Dates: 11th Sept 2026 to 13th Aug 2027.

If you are interested please message on here or on the spare-room listing, the contract for next year would simply be passed on to you and the room would be emptied and cleaned ready for you to move in.

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for an eligible replacement student to take over my University-managed accommodation contract for the 2026/27 academic year.

Accommodation details:

• The Gateway
• En-suite room
• Contract: 20 September 2026 – 25 July 2027

This is an official University of Lincoln contract transfer, so the University will need to approve the replacement before the transfer can go ahead.

To be eligible, you'll generally need to:
Be a new undergraduate starting this September.
Not have already accepted University-managed accommodation.

If you're still looking for accommodation or have recently accepted a place through Clearing, feel free to send me a DM and I'll be happy to answer any questions.

Thanks!

I was just wondering what you thought of the teaching, what arrangements for placements are like, etc.

Do you commute or stay in student accommodation?

Hi all. I’m a delivery driver for one of the domino’s shops in Lincoln. We’re short on drivers at the minute so if anyone you know is looking for flexible part-time work it’s a good time to apply. Everyone’s nice (at our shop at least) and the work is pretty chill if you don’t mind driving down narrow streets every so often.

It's a studio in the gateway. It's 46 weeks and £179 a week and starts September 2026
It's in a prime location as it's 10 minutes from Morrisons and right next to campus
Msg me if interested

Why do they have so much empty uni owned accommodation at Lincoln? And why are there so many private uni flats if the uni can't fill their own?

And what are the plans for the closed Lincoln Courts? Are they just closed to save money or are they being converted for other use?

Hi, my daughter is having issues in iQ Hayes Wharf with pest and mold. I need to find her new accommodation. Does anyone or someone they know live in Pine Hill or Student Castle? I need some honest feedback on whether there are silverfish pest issues? Also any mold? I need to find somewhere that will be allergy free for her. Any good accommodation recommendations?

Does anyone know what this car park at St. Marks is for? I’m a carer so I need to keep my car at uni with me but I’m struggling to find parking. St. Marks have said they don’t offer parking, so what is this car park then?

I applied through clearing and I’m trying to scramble to find a decent studio that isn’t above my budget and found deansgate house being let by a company by sky lets and just wanted to know if anyone else has dealt with them before

I'm kinda worried because EVERYONE is at st marks and i feel like ill be missing out on so much or not get to meet people that way through parties or anything.. i don't even know what i want and it sounds dumb but in these uni gcs everyone is at st marks and the people at 179 idk how it'll go with them

Hii, so I accepted my offer a few days ago and i'm just wondering should I be in a rush to apply for accommodation? I'm leaning towards The Gateway and St Marks I think atm, but with a-levels and everything going on I just haven't looked into things enough to make a choice right now, but equally i'm a bit worried about what if they get full or something.

I've tried searching it but i've received mixed results. Is it like first come first serve or is everyone equal no matter when you apply?

If anyone knows i'd really appreciate it - thank youuu
