Where you choose to live can make all the difference to your university experience. And it’s not just about having a place to sleep, eat, study and repeat – it’s about building a community, making lifelong friends, and creating memories that last long after graduation.
Vita Student accommodation is an experience you take with you for life. Our spaces and experiences are carefully designed to help students like yourself thrive academically and socially.
We’ll show you why our student accommodation is the perfect home away from home and why we should be at the top of your list when considering where to live for the next academic year.
Let’s get into it.
How Vita Helps You Build a Strong Social Network
Moving to a new city or a new country can be daunting. That’s why we go the extra mile to create opportunities for our residents to make friends and build lasting relationships.
From day one, we organise exclusive events tailored to bring people together.
These events include social mixers, craft workshops, cooking classes, and fitness sessions in our fully equipped gyms. We understand that not everyone is a natural social butterfly, so there’s always something going on that makes meeting new people easier.
What makes this even more special is that our Vita Student residents come from all corners of the globe, so you’re sure to meet students from different backgrounds, allowing you to build a global network that could come in handy later in life.
Did you know…
In a survey of over 4,000 Vita residents, students agreed that Vita gave them countless opportunities to meet people and form meaningful friendships.
Vita’s alumni network of over 2,000 students continues to stay connected well after graduation, with events taking place in China, Manchester, and London – proving just how strong the connections made at Vita can be.
Here’s what one student had to say:
“Vita has given me many opportunities to build meaningful relationships, which I aim to carry forward in my life while providing a safe and comfortable environment for someone who has never lived alone before.”

Vita’s Shared Spaces: Where Friendships Are Made
One key aspect of student life at Vita is the shared spaces, which are perfect for both studying and socialising. Vita isn’t your typical student accommodation where you are confined to your flat; it’s a dynamic environment with modern communal spaces and study rooms.
These common areas are designed for students like you, providing an ideal backdrop for project collaboration, casual catch-ups, or even spontaneous study sessions with your newfound friends and acquaintances.
Our shared kitchens and living areas also add to the social buzz, creating a community feel that’s essential for students adjusting to life away from home. For international students in particular, these shared spaces make it easy to bond over shared experiences and, of course, food!
How to Prepare for Your Move to Vita
Preparing for a move to Vita Student accommodation is a crucial step to ensuring a smooth transition into university life.
First, make sure you’re familiar with what we offer, including our exclusive events and student experiences. This way, you can jump right into the social scene when you arrive.
Packing is another important aspect—don’t forget the essentials, but remember that our accommodation has plenty of modern amenities on-site, so there’s no need to overpack.
Bring some of your favourite things from home to make your space feel cosy and personal, and perhaps even something to share with your new friends.

Lastly, if you’re travelling from overseas, make sure to give yourself enough time to adjust before the academic year begins.
And if you’re a parent looking for a safe, sociable, and comfortable accommodation option for your child, Vita Student should be your top choice.
