Is it possible to pay the rent for my Stoke-on-Trent student accommodation in instalments?

Yes, you can pay in instalments. However, some providers may require you to have a UK guarantor. Refer back to your accommodation expert for further help on the matter.

What is usually included in the rent?

This mainly depends on your accommodation provider or landlord; many Stoke-on-Trent student accommodation options offer essential utilities such as electricity, water, and gas in the rent, while some also offer Wi-Fi and insurance at no extra cost.

A guarantor is a person who signs the rental contract with you and commits to paying your rent if you are unable to do so yourself. A guarantor is often a family member, but it can be anyone. Most UK landlords require you to have a guarantor, so you’ll probably need to find one if you’re planning to study and live in Stoke-on-Trent.
