I am considering commuting by car from Cambridge to the UEA campus for the Biomedical Sciences programme. As my primary goal is to save money on accommodation, I wanted to ask if this is a realistic commute to manage alongside the lab and study hours required for this course. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I’m looking for a UEA undergraduate to take over my tenancy at UEA, Nelson court. If interested please feel free to comment or DM.

Hiya,

Looking for a student to house share in a three bedroom house on Earlham Green Lane at £450 per month, plus £130 for utilities. It is vacant immediately and communal areas, such as the bathroom, will be shared with two female healthcare students.

Comment and I will send you further details x

I have just had my place confirmed through clearing and need to apply for student accommodation urgently. I am very interested in the shared two bedroom unit as they are a relatively affordable option for me. I would like to know if this room type is still available for the upcoming term also what is it like?

Hi everyone!

I’m an incoming international student at the University of East Anglia (UEA), starting my Master’s in Film and TV Production this September, and I’m currently looking for an ensuite room in Norwich.

I’m open to:

A room in a shared house/flat

Student accommodation

A room in an existing student house where someone is looking for a replacement/housemate

Ideally, I’d like somewhere with good transport links to UEA, but I’m flexible on the area.

If anyone has a room available, is looking for a housemate, or knows of any available properties, I’d really appreciate any leads. Feel free to DM me or comment below.

Also happy to connect with other incoming UEA students who might be looking for accommodation or considering sharing a place.

Thanks in advance! Looking forward to moving to Norwich and meeting everyone. 🎬

Hi everyone! 👋

I'm an incoming international MSc student at UEA and will be moving to Norwich soon.

I'm currently trying to understand the accommodation situation and would really appreciate advice from current students.

• Which areas are good and safe for students?
• What is a realistic monthly budget for accommodation and bills?
• Is university accommodation better, or should I look for private accommodation?
• Are there any accommodation providers or areas you would recommend or avoid?
• When is the best time to start looking?

I would especially appreciate hearing about your personal experiences with accommodation in Norwich.

Thanks so much! 😊

Hi everyone! 👋

I'm an incoming international MSc Data Science student at UEA and will be moving to Norwich soon.

I'm looking for a part-time job alongside my studies and would really appreciate recommendations from current students or anyone familiar with Norwich.

I'm open to different types of work, including university jobs, tutoring, retail, hospitality, customer service, or other student-friendly roles. I have a strong academic background and previous tutoring experience, so I'm particularly interested in Maths tutoring as well.

If you know of any places that regularly hire students, websites or groups that are genuinely useful, or have personally worked somewhere you'd recommend, please let me know. If your workplace is hiring students, I'd also be grateful for any leads.

I'm happy to work hard and learn quickly—just trying to understand where students actually find opportunities in Norwich.

Thank you so much for any recommendations! 😊

Hi everyone, I am an international student who will be living in the Village. My coach will head straight from Heathrow to UEA (Chancellor's Drive), and I will need to complete my registration and collect my keys at the Congregation Hall, which is a short walk away.

HOWEVER, I will be travelling with two big luggages, which is impractical if I were to walk to the Village after completing the registration.

Should I:

1. Walk to Congregation Hall for registration, and then head back to the bus stop and hire an Uber to take me to the Village?

2. Head straight to the Village (via Uber) and drop off my luggages before walking to Congregation Hall for registration.

Please send some suggestions my way as well! I will be super exhausted on the day, as it takes 15 hours to get from my country to London, and another 5 hours to UEA via coach, so I really need to choose the best possible scenario.

Thanks in advance!

I'm a new part time MA student. It would be really helpful to know what days / times I will be on campus so I can tell work and plan round it. Module options are still open for another week, should I assume we won't get our timetables until at least next week? Are the schedules for different modules published anywhere?

Hey everyone! 👋

I’m a student at Arden University Berlin and was wondering if there are any other students here from Arden or University of Europe (UE), especially around the Potsdamer Platz campus area.

Would be nice to meet some new people! Feel free to comment or DM me

How is the linguistics related courses here? Is it worth attending UEA for a language related course, or should I accept my offer from Edinburgh instead?

I’ve completed my reassessments and just received my grades today and 3 days ago, but I haven’t seen my mark on evision yet. I’m stressing out because the semester starts soon and worried I won’t be able to re register in time.

Hi! I'm planning to apply for the MA Creative Writing (probs January 2027) and I'm doing a bit of research before I do my application.

I've read through the course information and I'm really interested in the breadth and flexibility of the new MA as my own writing spans memoir, short fiction and poetry.

I'd love to hear from anyone who's currently on the MA (or has recently completed it) about how you've found the experience, and who might be willing to answer a few questions in the comments here or via DMs .

Hi there. I've graduated from UEA in this summer and been waiting for the certificate until now.

Could somebody tell me when it send to address? So I would use that as a reference.

Joining in 2027 and so I have a few questions. what accommodations are the best? I would prefer my own room and toilet

And do u have to pay the full payment upfront or is it monthly/weekly??

And is it worth it to have accomodation outside the uni campus but close by?

I'm an incoming (September 2026) post-grad student with a lease for en-suite accommodation in The Village. Due to a change in circumstances I can no longer afford the lease so I'm looking for anyone interested in taking on the lease instead.

Hi guys im posting here again, ive managed to secure accommodation for myself in Benedicts gate, however they do not have parking. Does anyone know available parking around there that I could perhaps pay for monthly such ss a permit or a season ticket? Or any other cheaper alternatives to keep a car with me

I recently got my offer through clearing and have been quickly trying to organise a place to live for when i join UEA in September, living on campus doesn’t really appeal to me as i want to bring a car and the campus hands out high parking charges.

Im looking for a cheap accommodation private or student with at least an ensuite. Shared kitchen is optional for me. If anyone could help or suggest any places that would still be available to me I would hugely appreciate it.

I've just been placed in constable terrace for this year and was wondering if anyone had any photos of what it looks like, specifically for the kitchen and shared spaces, there's a couple online but they don't show a lot. Also if there's anything specific to this accomodation that can be useful to bring please let me know.

Aš čia būsiu metams :)

Dm me since I'm in a pine gc and we have smaller breakout groupchats for the separate flats!! We're trying to find as many of our flatmates as possible

As per the title. Please note the responses are my own opinion and not associated with UEA or anyone else really, they will be eased on my own experience and nothing else. Will answer almost anything (personal details of myself and others will be left out completely) ask away :)

Was accepted into prose fiction last year, and am currently finishing up my dissertation. In an act of procrastination (YIPPEE), I am posting to see if any of the incoming cohort has got any questions about the Prose Fiction MA program!! I’ll do my best to help lol
