Students Living at Home

One of the many stereotypes about students is that they all live in University Halls of Residence or in 鈥榮tudent bed-sit land鈥�. However, stereotypes are just that and don鈥檛 reflect the reality.

So if you鈥檙e one of our many students who live at home with their families rather than moving in to student accommodation in Bangor don鈥檛 worry. Don鈥檛 fall into the trap of thinking you鈥檙e not a proper student or are an outsider.

All students have different student experiences 鈥� after all, we鈥檙e all individuals and will take the parts of the student life that suit us. With about 11, 000 students at Bangor that鈥檚 11,000 different student experiences.

Living away from student accommodation is just one of the options that creates your individual student experience just as deciding on module choices, which clubs and societies to join and which volunteering projects to get involved with do. And with each choice you鈥檒l engage with a different aspect of university with lots of different people to meet.

Enjoy your time here: take all the opportunities and experiences you can and remember the benefits you have of living at home. For many of you it鈥檚 a good option financially, with lower student loans and being able to stay in a part time job you had before you were a student. For some of you remaining with your family and friends is really important and is something those living away from home often find difficult.

As one student said a few years ago:

鈥淵ou鈥檙e lucky having your family to go back to each day.鈥�
