University of Sheffield International College students
St Vincent’s Place is our dedicated accommodation available for students who will be attending the University of Sheffield International College.
The accommodation is 2 minutes walk from your classes, and you’ll be living with other international students studying at the College - perfect!
St Vincent’s Place is located near the main University campus and next door to the International College. The building itself is a beautifully renovated Roman Catholic church, which contains many original features, with a modern twist - there’s a cinema room with comfy sofas, music rooms, social and study spaces, and a range of other communal facilities.
Students live together in single-sex flats with between four and nine flatmates. Each student has their own bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and shares the communal kitchen and living area with their flatmates.
There is a Chinese oriental store and a Tesco Express near the accommodation, and you’re only a short walk from Sheffield City Centre which has a wide range of shops from stationery stores, clothes shops, food retailers and more! You’ve even got our own Solly Street Cafe just around the corner
Take a look around St. Vincent's with our 360-degree virtual tours!
This stunning accommodation has a lot to offer - you have 24/7 Customer Services, and a wealth of on-site facilities such as a launderette and post boxes, and your own bedroom with an en-suite bathroom!
Arrivals weekend is 9 - 10 September 2023 which gives a great opportunity for you to settle into your accommodation and explore the City prior to starting your studies.
