STUdENT AccoMModATIoN MARKET IN NoTTINghAM
Nottingham is a very strong higher education city boasting two main universities. In the Times Good University Guide, the University of Nottingham is ranked 25th and Nottingham Trent University is 54th. There are 61,115 students, of which 51,745 (86%) are full-time and are likely to require student accommodation over the life of their studies. Of these full-time students, 43,685 (84%) are undergraduates and 8,060 (16%) are postgraduates. The total number of international students is 11,215 (19%) with 2,370 (21%) from inside the EU and 8,845 (79%) from non-EU countries. Kaplan International College also has a base on the Nottingham Trent campus. Combined, these universities provide strong demand for high quality student accommodation in Nottingham, especially in the city centre.
The supply and demand imbalance is likely to be intensified by an increasingly restrictive and challenging planning environment which will limit future student accommodation development impacting and consequently insulating rents and values of well located and managed existing assets. In addition, we expect a continuation in the trend of migration of students from the HMO sector to purpose built housing as legislation tightens and the price differential between the two remains narrow.
The University of Nottingham has campuses in China and Malaysia and has been invited to establish a second Chinese campus in Shanghai. Nottingham describes itself as “research led” with work carried out at the University winning two Nobel prizes in 2003. The University of Nottingham is committed to maintaining current levels of undergraduate students and maintain their position in terms of postgraduate recruitment. The University of Nottingham’s Jubilee Campus state-of-the-art facilities include the Schools of Education, Contemporary Chinese Studies and Computer Science, Nottingham University Business School, The National College for Leadership of Schools and Children’s Services, Sports Centre and Innovation Park.
Nottingham Trent University (NTU) has been consistently among the leading post 1992 universities in The Times League Table as well as one of the biggest. The University has demonstrated high quality in an unusually wide range of disciplines. Best known for Fashion and other creative arts which have the largest number of students, it also boasts one of the UK’s biggest Law Schools.
