Durham University offers accommodation for those who study in its faculties, organized in what they call “Colleges”. You can request a place within these, but you have to meet certain requirements and, in general, if you are staying for a short time, you will not be assigned a place. In the Colleges, in addition to having the accommodation, you will be able to develop a sense of community with the other students, who may belong to different faculties and be of different ages.
Regarding the price, the monthly payment of a residence is usually more expensive than that of a room in a shared flat.
