The sky's the limit
Our iconic North Towers always have been and still are, the heart and soul of our Colchester Campus and a local landmark.
With everything on your doorstep, you can roll out of bed and still be on time for lectures.
Reduced availability
Due to essential maintenance and refurbishment works in the North Towers, the number of available single rooms and self-contained apartments will be greatly reduced for the 2023-24 and 24-25 academic years.
Specific works on Tawney Tower, will take place between October and December 2024. We endeavour to mitigate any disturbance to you but please due use the alternative study spaces on campus, should you find it difficult to study in your room.
Don't forget, you can apply for accommodation with us as soon as we're your first choice.
