LSBM encourages all new students to have their accommodation arrangements in place before arriving at the school.

The Student Services Co-ordinator is available to help students find accommodation, and it is advised that students inform the school as early as possible about their accommodation needs.

LSBM makes use of specialised companies to place students in comfortable and affordable accommodation that is within easy reach of the school.

Of course, students are welcome to make their own private accommodation arrangements, and we will gladly assist with any advice and support that might be necessary in this regard.
 

Why Host Families?
LSBM offers hosted student accommodation thanks to close relationships with various organisations that specialise in providing Homestays throughout London.

‘Hosts-International’ and ‘Britannia Travel’ are two agencies that are highly recommended by many colleges and universities in the London area. They both have exceptionally large databases of hosting families in use, and can usually provide confirmation of a place within 72 hours of the application.

LSBM recommends host families to all students who are new to the UK, as the system provides a family environment whilst being away from home. A laundry service and meals also come as standard with the host option, and students can have their own room for privacy and study.

All accommodation is within easy reach of the school via public transport, and students usually stay between Zones 3 and 4.
 

What is a Host Family Accommodation?
Host families are ideal for any students who may be slightly apprehensive about making the big move to study in London. Host families can provide support and comfort to students, help students with their English language development, and provide a family home for the duration of their stay.

“At ‘Hosts’ you will live as part of the family, which may help you to learn about new cultures and broaden your interests. Hosts are very sensitive to everybody’s separate requirements and ask for much detail on the application to ensure that you are well suited to your host family. They are more than happy to place you with a new family if you are not satisfied. The host will provide you with your own private room and study area, a laundry service and meals inclusive of the price.”
 

Alternative Accommodation
More independent students might prefer to stay in a student flat or residence. This option is usually self-catering, and students can enjoy the privacy and independence of their own room, whilst also profiting from a vibrant and student-orientated environment. LSBM will be happy to assist with any applications for this type of accommodation.
