Local Students

Many of our students live locally, and university life can feel different for you. So dive in and join the sociable Abertay community- we know you'll make friends for life.

Abertay is where you make friends with people from all over the world AND get your degree. 

A lot of our students live locally, and we know it can feel different for you.

Some of your classmates might be living in student accommodation and some will be from other cities or countries, so it can feel odd if your situation isn鈥檛 the same. And even though you鈥檒l have all the comforts of home, living in the same place can make it seem like an extension of school or college. 

But think about it. In many ways you're ahead of the game. You already know that living locally is great and very affordable for students, which is a huge bonus. In fact your local knowledge could be the key to making friends.

You'll be the guru when it comes to good places to go and things to see. From cafes and bars to skate parks, or which is the best beach - you know it all and could even go along and show them how to get there.

Plus we really encourage you to join in the extracurricular activities on offer, to help you squeeze the most out of your university experience and make some life-long friends.

And remember - everyone else will be as nervous as you are, so jump in with both feet and you鈥檒l have the best time.
