Summer Housing

Our brand new housing is better than ever

During the past two years, construction has continued on our campus to provide 900 new state-of-the-art residences, designed to offer an even higher standard of accommodation.

There are no dorms – instead, all students enjoy their own personal bedroom and bathroom, with shared kitchen and living room accommodation that has been designed and finished to the highest international standards.

We also provide a genuinely caring and supportive environment for our guests, with a level of pastoral care that gives our guests a real home away from home.

We pride ourselves on offering a safe and secure environment, with 24-hour Reception and 24-hour security throughout our campus. We also take a huge personal interest in each and every one of our guests, and a dedicated Visitor Experience Representative is allocated to each group, giving them a quick and easy point of contact should they need assistance.

Summer housing in a home away from home

Summer housing like no other
University College Dublin is Ireland’s largest and most international university, perfect for study abroad tours. It offers world-class academic, residential and sporting facilities, and is within easy reach of Dublin city centre and the magnificent Irish countryside, along with a host of cultural and visitor attractions. UCD is the first choice among Irish students looking to pursue a third level education.

Summer student accommodation that beats all others
Every guest sharing summer student housing at UCD enjoys their own bedroom, giving them maximum comfort and privacy. Our summer student accommodation comprises comfortable 4-bedroom and 6-bedroom suites – with free WiFi throughout. The apartments are positioned throughout the college campus and at nearby Blackrock, a lively, friendly village on Dublin’s affluent Southside, less than 2 miles from Belfield. This accommodation is also perfect for internships with housing included.

Excellent dining facilities for study abroad groups

Summer student housing with dining built-in
Our excellent campus dining facilities are available throughout the summer for the added convenience of our summer housing guests. Furthermore, each apartment suite comes fully equipped with an open-plan kitchen/living room to meet the needs of all of our guests. In addition we offer modern, self-service laundry facilities across our campus. Our guests also benefit from a weekly cleaning service with change of bed linen.

Summer student accommodation to the highest standard
The summer residences at UCD are carefully integrated into their surrounding parkland setting and are very much low-density. Maintained to a very high standard, they are an ideal home from home for our summer visitors. Dublin is a modern European capital city with a history stretching back over a millennium. It is safe and friendly, with a temperate climate during the summer months and a superb public transport system.

Getting around during your study abroad tour

Summer student accommodation to the highest standard
The UCD campus at Belfield is located in the southern suburbs of Dublin, just fifteen minutes from the city centre, fifteen from the coast and thirty minutes to the beautiful Dublin/Wicklow Mountains. It’s summer student accommodation with a difference.

Study abroad tours with easy access to Europe
Dublin Airport is only half an hour from our campus via a regular, direct AirCoach service. The airport provides direct connections to about 100 European destinations. We’re just a two-hour flight from London, Paris, or Amsterdam, for example. It gives new meaning to the term ‘study abroad’.
