Student Accommodation in Birmingham

Aston Student Homes (ASH) is owned and managed by Aston Students’ Union and is endorsed by Aston University. ASH is the official Students’ Union accommodation support service set up for the mutual benefit of private landlords/agents and Aston students. ASH is not a Lettings Agency and we do not ‘match up’ students with landlords.

However, students are referred to us for all queries relating to accommodation. We advertise a whole range of accommodation including large city developments, traditional houses, self-contained flats/studios, rooms in shared properties, short-term accommodation, and homestay properties.

Our aim is to offer a wide choice and to help Aston University students in Birmingham to find good quality private accommodation.

Sam Suarez

Aston Student Homes Coordinator

Email: astonstudenthomes@aston.ac.uk

Sam graduated with a BSc in Dental Sciences in 2008. She realised that she didn’t want to pursue a career in dentistry and so started working here at Aston. Fortunately for us, she hasn’t looked back since.

She first started working at Aston University in 2009 for the Enabling Team as a Student Support Worker. Within a few months, she started working on Reception for the Students' Union Advice Centre. As part of her role, she liaised with local accommodation providers to maintain a database of landlords for students and also helped students with all sorts of issues including academic, money, and housing problems.

She is now responsible for coordinating Aston Student Homes and is excited to be able to focus solely on this project. Sam works hard to foster good relations with local landlords, agents, and hall providers as well as supporting students with house hunting and a whole range of housing problems. Sam thoroughly enjoys supporting students throughout their accommodation journey so that they can have the best accommodation experience possible whilst studying here at Aston. Sam loves organising events such as Accommodation Fairs and Find a Flatmate.

In her spare time, Sam enjoys dancing, reading, caring for her family, and socialising with her friends.
