Accommodation
Each term’s rent is payable in advance at the beginning of each term. Utilities charges and other accommodation related charges such as internet access are included in the rental payment.
Meals
Mansfield prides itself on the quality of its catering and most meals are cooked from fresh ingredients, locally sourced from high animal welfare suppliers, with the same menus available to students and academic and support staff.
A variably priced menu is available for all meals except Formal Hall. Choices will be offered so that a meal will always be available at affordable prices. The meal prices for 2024-25 are:
- Lunch: £5.25
- Dinner: £5.25
Payment for all meals except Formal Hall will be charged to battels (student accounts) using the University Card. Additional charges apply for the optional twice-weekly ‘Formal’ dinners (you sign up for these via the Student Hub) and these are charged direct to your battels.

Visiting Students can apply for up to £200 of academic expenses per year. The Mansfield Visiting Student Academic Grant is advertised termly, and you can split your grant across multiple items.
You can apply for funding for:
- Academic resources: e.g. books, equipment, laptops, tablets, headphones.
