“The Village is a unique concept and allows students to be more independent. The variety of living arrangements caters for individual needs of different residents. Cultural differences are respected which is very important and opportunities for residents to interact are abundant, but not enforced”.

“The facilities we have in the Village are fantastic. I particularly like The Hub (café) and it’s easy to survive without having to leave the Village or campus (a real boon at assignment and exam time. SUV certainly provides many opportunities for residents to meet and mix. There were four ready-made friends in my apartment and I met more people through my housemates”.
