Common questions
When should I start looking for student accommodation?
College residences open early in the year. House shares and weekday rooms are advertised from June, with most ads between July and September. For a January start, look from November. Set up alerts so you hear about new rooms straight away.
Is a weekday room (digs) a good option for students?
Often, yes. A weekday room is a room in the host's home from Monday to Friday; you go home at weekends. Called 'digs' in Ireland. It is usually cheaper than a house share. You are a licensee, so agree the days, price, what's included and the notice in writing.
Can parents claim tax back on a student's rent?
Parents paying rent for a child on an approved course may be able to claim the Rent Tax Credit, including for weekday rooms, if Revenue's conditions are met.
How do I avoid student accommodation scams?
Never pay before you or someone you trust has viewed the room in person, never pay in cash, crypto or by money-transfer apps, and be wary of prices far below the area.
