International students

We offer accommodation at Hartpury Gloucester (Blackfriars) for international fee-paying postgraduate students.

Blackfriars, managed by Cityheart Living, is a popular choice amongst students seeking city living, offering modern living spaces, large communal areas and en-suite rooms with queen-size beds. It's a great home away from home, with everything you need to study at Hartpury.

Guarantor

To secure your Blackfriars accommodation, you will need to have a guarantor to sign your tenancy agreement.

A guarantor is somebody who legally agrees to be responsible for any owed rent, the property and its’ condition. In order for someone to be a guarantor they will need to have a UK based address and bank account.

Having a guarantor is like having a back-up for both you and the landlord. If you cannot pay your rent or pay for damages, a guarantor will be legally bound to do so.

Whilst Hartpury University cannot act as a guarantor for students there are companies who may be able to help. Please find below some links to help you in your search:
