Norwich University of the Arts Student Accommodation

Norwich University of the Arts (NUA) is located in the very heart of Norwich, encircled by ruins of historic walls and winding cobbled streets full of medieval buildings. This City Centre is famed for its fusion of revered history with modern culture—everywhere you’ll go, you’ll find centuries-old pubs sitting next door to up-and-coming bars, contemporary shopping centres round the corner from preserved marketplaces like the medieval Lanes. This is the go-to area for cosy student flats in Norwich that are right on the doorstep of NUA, with apartments in the City Centre comprising anywhere from just 1 bedroom up to 4 bedrooms.

If you want somewhere a little more student-oriented, try the Golden Triangle for student accommodation near Norwich University of the Arts. This community has plenty of larger 5-, 6- and even 8-bedroom properties, all ready to host those bigger groups of students and, let’s be honest, the parties that come hand-in-hand. It’s not just the bedrooms that make the Golden Triangle a fave amongst NUA students though; this area is only a 30-min walk away from Norwich University of the Arts (making it an easy commute even for those 9am lectures), and is home to a wide selection of independent pubs, restaurants and cafés. All you could ever need can be found within the Golden Triangle—what more could you want?

Other student accommodation areas across Norwich tend to be further out from the City Centre and NUA campus, making travel times to uni a little longer. If you don’t mind being close to the University of East Anglia, North and West Earlham is a trendy student area where rents are cheaper, student homes are larger and student life is buzzing. Earlham’s proximity to UEA means there are excellent public transport routes to the City Centre, and the large student population means there are loads of local amenities (including some great pubs) nearby.

Life on Campus

Located in the centre of Norwich, Norwich University of the Arts is a fairly small university of not even 3000 students. NUA is the go-to for creative students across the UK, thanks to its heavy focus on art and design fields including fine art, fashion, textiles, game design, film and visual effects.

Due to the NUA campus being located in the centre of Norwich, student life here can really only be described as buzzing and vibrant. Surrounded by endless shopping opportunities, countless restaurants and bars, and centuries’ worth of history and culture, NUA is fortunate enough to be in the heart of one of the UK’s oldest and liveliest cities.

What’s more, students at NUA are never far away from the great outdoors, despite the university being City Centre-based. With the scenic county of Norfolk and its rolling countryside just a short bus journey away, there are many popular seaside destinations (such as Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft) that can easily be reached for when you need a day of fun and adventure.
