Frequently Asked Questions

Most students in Oxford start searching for next year’s student house in late September and early October, although early November is when demand is at its highest. You’ll have the best chance of beating the competition if you start your search sooner rather than later.

At £233 per person per week, average rent for UniHomes’ student accommodation in Oxford for the 2026-27 letting season is a little more expensive than the rest of the country (where the average sits at around £176 pppw).

But with Oxford accommodation ranging in price from £135 to £699 pppw, and with every UniHomes Oxford property having bills included, it’s easy to find something that suits you and your housemates’ budgets.

It’s a close call between East Oxford and Headington this 2026-27 letting season for the most popular areas for Oxford student accommodation on the UniHomes website, with East Oxford just coming out on top. But if you’re after somewhere more central, the city centre is also highly sought after.

Oxford students are clearly a social lot, as it’s 4-bedroom properties that are UniHomes’ most popular so far in the 2026-27 letting season, followed by 5-beds and 6-beds.
