Virtual tours offered for private university halls

STUDENTS who will be starting at the University of Portsmouth this September now have the chance to check out their halls for the year, without moving from their laptop.

Unilife has created 360 degree tours of their private rooms, which include Middle Street, Earlsdon Street and St James’ Street.

Marketing manager Antony Aguado, 37, said: ‘We have a large number of students who aren’t based locally and we’re always looking for feedback from them.

‘They actually came up with this idea, and in just two months we have put it all together.’
