Dalrida Student Village

Jordanstown is the largest of the University’s four campuses, and has the largest number of students.

It has excellent sporting and recreational facilities, as well as having an on-site supermarket, banks and snack bars, etc.

Nearby, there are additional local shops and pubs in Whiteabbey Village, plus a more extensive choice of retail outlets at the

Abbey Centre and in Carrickfergus. As Belfast is so close to campus, the entertainment and shopping attractions of

Northern Ireland’s Capital City are also readily accessible.

Dalriada Student Village accommodation is mostly in the form of five person apartments, clustered around three attractive

courtyards with on-site parking facilities. Each study bedroom has an ensuite shower, and residents share a communal

kitchen/living room. All study bedrooms are internet-enabled as part of the fees package.

In addition there is a small convenience store and self-service laundrette, as well as administration offices.

The site is just five minutes’ walk from the main University buildings and sports facilities.

Collection of keys takes place at the Residential Services Office (Block 5).

This is also where staff are able to help you throughout the day.
