No, the college does not offer any on-campus housing services at either of its campuses. Students would have to look off-campus if they wish to pursue studies on-site. The university partners with NEST, a off-campus housing provider, with room prices starting at INR 51.5 K per month for twin-room. Students who find living there costly can look for alternatives via off-campus housing portals.

No, the Westford University UAE does not offer its own degrees. Every degree awarded to students is done by the university offering the said course. These degrees are accredited by the local bodies of their country of origin.

Students enrolled in a BA (Hons) in Sports Business in affiliation to the LJMU UK would get a degree from the Liverpool John Moores University, and not Westford.
