Global Student Accommodation Group launches  first ‘Uninest’ student residences in Dubai

Global Student Accommodation Group (GSA), the leading provider of student accommodation worldwide, has announced the launch of ‘Uninest’ Student Residences in Dubai to meet the growing demand for dedicated student accommodation in one of the world’s fastest growing higher education hubs.

Offering the first non-campus, student residential building in Dubai, Uninest Residences will open to students studying at all universities from February 2016. Uninest is situated in Dubailand, just 10 minutes from Dubai International Academic City (DIAC), the world’s largest free zone dedicated to higher education, and 25 minutes from other major education hubs in Dubai.  GSA believe that natural light, fresh air, quiet and access to technology are a student’s right and all of these are core features of the residences. Students moving into these new residences can expect much more than a place to live, but instead a living-learning community designed specifically to support them while they study. Everything about the residences has been carefully designed to maximize the happiness, comfort and success of the student residents.

In the last 12 years the United Arab Emirates has established an incredible 35 universities, with total enrolments in the country reaching over 120,000 students in 2015, of which an estimated 60,000 are in Dubai alone. The UAE now boasts the highest number of international branch campuses in the world, 26 of which are located in Dubai.

Having pioneered the purpose built student accommodation industry in the UK, GSA Group founded the private sector brand ‘Uninest’ to offer secure and high quality student residences in a community environment that is attractive to both international and domestic students seeking a conducive living environment to ensure their ultimate academic success and wellbeing.
