Family accommodation
We have a range of two or three-bedroom flats on campus for you and your family. There is only a limited amount of family accommodation available at any time, which can be in high demand.
Alexander Court family flats
Located on campus, each of these nine modern family flats has an open plan kitchen/living room, a bathroom and nearby laundry facilities. Every apartment is furnished and accessed from a main stairwell which has locked pushchair storage. We offer three-bedroom flats (for couples with maximum two children) and two-bedroom flats (for couples with maximum one child).
How to apply for family accommodation
Please email accommodation@stir.ac.uk to apply for family accommodation. We will let students know whether we can assist with family accommodation once your application has been received and before the start of the semester.
Council Tax
If your spouse or partner is a non-student, they may be liable for Council Tax.
Council Tax is a property based tax which is payable to local councils to help fund the cost of services that they provide such as the police and fire service. Most full-time students are normally eligible for Council Tax exemption. In order to satisfy the 'full-time' criteria for council tax exemption you must:
- Be required to attend University for a period of at least 24 weeks in the academic year
- Undertake on average at least 21 hours of study, tuition or work experience in each of these weeks
Please refer to your local Council Tax Office for rules relating to Council Tax exemptions.
