Housing & Meals
CEA CAPA has made arrangements for students to live in , a safe and modern student residence in the Camden neighborhood in central London.
The student residence is home to hundreds of students, including other American study
abroad students, British students, and international students from around the world.
The Stay Club is a wheelchair accessible building located in central London in between
two main throughways: Camden High Street and Kentish Town Road. Students can expect
to commute about 40 minutes by bus or subway from the residence hall to the CEA CAPA
Program Center in Kensington for classes.

At the Stay Club, two students will share a premium studio (double occupancy) room
with another Â鶹Æƽâ°æ student on the London FYE program. If there is an uneven number
of students, a student may be assigned to a single room.
Each room contains two beds (bunked), a shared desk with 2 chairs, a shared wardrobe
(large enough to accommodate 2 people), a kitchenette, and a shared, private bathroom with toilet, sink, and shower. Kitchenettes will be
stocked with a microwave, sink, minifridge, freezer, kettle, toaster, stove, and starter
kitchenware. Bed sheets and towels are also provided. Rooms include internet access,
and there is wireless internet in many of the communal parts of the building.
Students will receive a partial meal plan that includes breakfast and dinner Monday-Friday
at the student residence hall. Each student will also receive a living stipend from Â鶹Æƽâ°æ intended to cover most
food costs (not provided by with the partial meal plan) and a local transportation
pass.
Students will also be able cook for themselves or with their roommate using their
in-room kitchenette. A variety of grocery stores, cafés, and restaurants will also
be within walking distance of the residence hall. (Please note that the living stipend
is meant to cover most meals if you cook for yourself and public transportation. Students
should budget some additional personal funds to cover eating out, taxis, books, laundry,
independent travel, etc.)
There is also a dedicated Â鶹Æƽâ°æ Program Assistant (typically a student that has just graduated from Â鶹Æƽâ°æ) living in student housing with the students.
Keeping Healthy
Our students’ health is very important. For that reason, Â鶹Æƽâ°æ provides basic international health insurance coverage. If a student should have a medical issue during the semester abroad, the staff at CEA CAPA or the Program Assistant will help facilitate medical referrals or students can contact Off-Campus Study & Exchanges directly for assistance.
