Important information
The Kaplan Living Glasgow – Old Dumbarton Road building will be undergoing remedial works to the exterior during the 23/24 and 24/25 academic years, expected to last until the summer of 2025. The works involve building safety improvements to the external walls, which may at times be noisy. Works will usually only take place during normal weekday operational hours to ensure there is minimal impact on residents living in the building, and we will do everything possible to limit disruption from noisy work during important time periods such as weeks when exams take place. There are lots of study facilities close to Kaplan Living, and staff will be able to provide information and directions. Should you have any questions regarding these works or require further information, please contact Pathways.accommodation@kaplan.com.
