Nearby locations to live

These towns have more to offer than just their ideal location. Whether you're after a vibrant university town or a quieter seaside home, these nearby locations are all within the required 50-mile distance of the University.

Middlesbrough is a popular, affordable place to live. Many younger people choose to live here because of how close the University is, creating a diverse, vibrant community. Middlesbrough was recently named as one of the small cities of the future by the Financial Times. 

Middlesbrough boasts a lively atmosphere with restaurants, busy shopping centres and a range of entertainment venues, from pubs and sports centres to galleries and museums. If you enjoy exploring the outdoors, then you will find many relaxing hotspots, such as the popular Stewart and Albert Parks. There is something for everyone and, because you'll be close to the International Study Centre, you will have your whole world at your doorstep.

Darlington is a large market town located in County Durham. Lovingly known as ‘Darlo’, it has a rich industrial history and was the birthplace of the world's first steam-powered passenger railway. Smaller than Middlesbrough, it is perfect for students who want a quieter university experience, whilst also having strong travel links to the University: the International Study Centre is only 40 minutes away by train, or 22-40 minutes by car.

Most commonly known as Stockton, Stockton-on-Tees is a small market town only a 30 minute train journey away from the University. It is located on the banks of the River Tees, offering peaceful riverside walks or water sports activities for those seeking something more adventurous.
Travel around Darlington is very affordable, giving you easy access to nearby cities such as Middlesbrough, Newcastle and Durham. Stay local or travel further out to see everything that North Yorkshire and Durham has to offer. 

Redcar is a beautiful seaside town located on the coast of Yorkshire. It is only 7 miles from Middlesbrough, so a fun night out with friends is never too far away. A perfect place to live for those wanting to live near the sea, whilst maintaining close links to the University and other towns.

The University is just 30 minutes away by train, or 15-25 minutes by car.

Located just 35 minutes away by train (20-35 minutes by car), Saltburn is a seaside town very close to Middlesbrough. Known for its stunning beaches and striking Victorian architecture, whether you like surfing, exploring or visiting one of the many independent shops, Saltburn is perfect for those who want to be only a moment away from the coast.

Booking your accommodation

It’s important to arrange your accommodation before arriving in the UK. This helps ensure a smooth immigration and registration process, and gives you peace of mind knowing where you’ll stay.

If you are under 18, you must arrange accommodation through the Centre. Certain accommodation types may be reserved specifically for under-18s.

You’ll receive an invitation to apply for accommodation once you confirm your place. If you request accommodation during your application, the Central Student Support team will provide up-to-date details on available options, fees, and next steps.

We recommend applying as early as possible. While accommodation is still available, it is allocated on a first come, first served basis. Applying early increases your chances of securing your preferred room type.

Accommodation Commitment for September and October 2025

To provide assurance of accommodation availability, we have introduced an Accommodation Commitment so students can feel confident about securing a room.

To receive a room offer, follow these simple steps:

Submit your Acceptance Form and make any required payments by 25 July 2025 (5pm UK time).

Use the instructions from your Centre or College to apply by 4 August 2025 (5pm UK time).

Once you receive a room offer, complete the application process within the given deadlines to confirm your booking.

Important Information:

  • The Accommodation Commitment applies to courses starting in September and October 2025 only.
  • Rooms are allocated on a first come, first served basis.
  • Some students may be prioritised, including those under 18 or with specific medical needs. Certain accommodation types may be reserved for under-18s.
  • Students do not need their CAS or study visa to be part of the accommodation commitment or to start the booking process.

Arranging your own private accommodation

If you prefer to arrange your own accommodation, there are private rooms, flats, and houses available in and around Teesside. You have two options:

Amber

  • Amber is a leading student accommodation provider offering a range of options. If you choose this route, our Central Student Support team will give you a bespoke link to Amber’s Portal. Their team will guide you through the booking process and assist with any queries.

Arrange independently

  • You may also arrange accommodation on your own. If you do, please inform us of your address and ensure it is within a 60-minute door-to-door commute of Teesside University International Study Centre.

Please also refer to our 'Look out for fraud' section, which highlights the potential risks of booking accommodation privately.

Arrange your room

If you have any queries regarding accommodation availability and accommodation options, you can contact the TeessideISC.CSS@studygroup.com who are available for any help or advice you may need.

Look out for fraud

Scammers may specifically target international students so it is important to be able to recognise common signs of fraudulent activity and know what to do if you come across it. Let us know at fraudreporting@studygroup.com if you have any concerns about fraudulent activity when dealing with a private accommodation provider so that we can help to protect you and other international students in case they are targeted in the same way.
