[HDNG]IN COLLEGE:[EHDNG][PARA][STAT][BULL] Self-catering: 8% [BULL] Cost: ú35(35wks)[ESTAT][PARA][BOLD]Availability:[EBOLD] Across all sites, 40% of 1st years have a place in college accommodation, but 4% of those have to share rooms. Many of the residences are plush and new. At Plymouth, 1/2 the 1st years are housed in self-catering places within 3 miles of the campus. A few students at Exmouth can live in catered halls (the price above does not include food) and these provide places for almost all 1st years. There are further places at Seale-Hayne, but students at Exeter have to make do with private housing or the University's head tenancy scheme, offering 50 places in Exeter.[PARA][BOLD]Car parking:[EBOLD] Limited but free with permit.[HDNG]EXTERNALLY:[EHDNG][PARA][STAT][BULL] Renting: 67% [BULL] Ave rent: ú36[ESTAT][PARA][BOLD]Availability in Plymouth:[EBOLD] [ITAL]There's just about enough for those who are quick off the mark, but students who bend down to tie their laces or check the mirror for zits may look round to find, to mix a metaphor or two, they've missed the boat. Recommended areas include the Barbican, Mutley and Stoke, both close to the campus. Devonport isn't really worth the journey and Stonehouse is as rough as sandpaper on sunburn.[EITAL][PARA][BOLD]Living out in Exeter:[EBOLD] see [ULNE]University of Exeter[EULNE].[PARA][BOLD]Housing help:[EBOLD] The University runs an [ITAL]efficient[EITAL] accommodation office on each site with 18 staff, offering computerised vacancy lists and an approval scheme.[PARA][PARA]
