If you are living on campus you can collect your
post from the Post Room between 9.00am and
8.00pm on weekdays (except Mondays opening at
1.00pm) and 2.00pm to 5.00pm at weekends.
The post room is situated in the back of the Media
Building. You will get an e-mail advising you if a
parcel has been delivered for you and don’t forget
to take your Keele Card as proof of identity to
collect everything.
Check you give people the correct address so that
your post isn’t delayed. This must include your
name, room number, block number, hall of
residence and postcode:
Barnes Hall – ST5 5DZ
Hawthorns – ST5 5DT
Holly Cross – ST5 5JB
Horwood – ST5 5DY
Lindsay – ST5 5DX
The Oaks – ST5 5JD

Council Tax
Full-time students do not have to pay Council Tax.
So, if you live in University Halls or a house where
everyone is a full-time student, you should not get a
bill from the Council. Towards the end of October,
Keele University send a list to Newcastle Borough
Council and Stoke-on-Trent City Council confirming
the names of all full-time students, therefore you
should not need to provide the Council with any
documentation confirming your student status.
Please note: if you are resident in a house with
someone who is not a full-time student, you may be
liable for payment of a proportion of the Council
Tax for that property. If you think you should be
exempt but are still getting a bill, contact the
Student Accommodation Office or Advice &
Support at Keele (ASK) in the Students’ Union
for advice.

Child Care
on Campus
We are really proud of our brand new,
state-of-the-art, purpose built nursery.
Situated on the campus it offers 128 places daily for
Student, Staff and Community Users. Places cannot
be guaranteed so early booking is essential.
