ITC Loughborough accomodation prices

ITC swimmers can access William Morris Hall on the main Loughborough University campus.

Often swimmers will spend their first year in halls and then share private rental accommodation with other swimmers. All ITC swimmers can access a place in halls irrespective of their course they are studying with the University or College. Athletes not engaged in any education are still able to get a place in halls and the cost for these athletes is the same as student athletes.
