2022 Student Accommodation

CUSHMAN & WAKEFIELD

KEY STATS

Looking forward As of the January deadline for 2022/23 entry, UCAS reports that overall applications are down by 0.9%, although this is still 7.5% higher than the figure recorded in 2020. Non-EU international applications have grown by 5.5% indicating further sector recovery from COVID-19 and the continued attractiveness of UK higher education and Government policy in relation to international students. The international student presence in the UK is likely to be boosted by the end of the UK Government’s blended and distance learning concessions on 30th June 2022 which will then require face to-face contact at least twice a month during term time.
