Student FAQs
Greenwich town centre is the most atmospheric but also the most expensive. Lewisham is the most popular among students — good value, excellent transport links, and a 20-minute DLR ride to campus. Deptford is a great middle ground — close to campus, creative, and affordable. New Cross and Brockley suit students who want a quieter base with easy rail access to Greenwich.
The most popular routes are the DLR from Bank or Tower Gateway to Greenwich (20 minutes), the National Rail Thameslink from Blackfriars or London Bridge to Greenwich (15 minutes), or the Thames Clipper river bus from various central London piers to Greenwich Pier (scenic, 40 minutes). The DLR is the most used for daily commuting and gives easy connections across East London.
Yes. Most landlords in Greenwich, Deptford, and Lewisham accept international guarantors — the university has a large international community and the local rental market is experienced with this. For those requiring a UK-based guarantor, Housing Hand is widely accepted by Acolyte's verified landlords.
Most listings include water, electricity, gas, and broadband — clearly stated on each listing. Always check, as some South East London properties separate utility bills.
