When is the accommodation available?
Vacation rooms are available from the 11th July 2026 for those students currently living on campus and you will receive an offer from mid-June onwards.
The last night that you can stay in a summer vacation room is Friday 4th September. If you are not returning to accommodation in September we will not be able to offer you any extension after this date and you will need to ensure that you vacate your room by 10am on 5th September.
If you have a booking for September onwards and need to stay in accommodation beyond the 5th September, further information will be sent to you in your summer vacation room offer.
If you are currently living in a Semester Only room with a contract end date of 23rd May, a Premium room with a contract end date of 13th June or an HIC room with a contract end date of 4th July and you wish to stay for the vacation, please apply as soon as possible and we will make you an offer, subject to availability and debt and discipline checks, before your current contract expires.
If you already have a room booked with us from September 2026, please advise us of the Flat and Room Number in the Additional Information section of the application form.
Please be aware that we will not be able to make an offer of accommodation if you have any outstanding debt to the University, or any disciplinary on your record.
Please note, if you wish to decline your offer of accommodation or change your dates after an offer has been made, there will be a £25 Variation of Contract charge applied to your account.
If you are currently living off campus and wish to take up a room on campus for the vacation, you will be able to move in from the 18th July.
Please be aware that we will not be able to make an offer of accommodation if you have any outstanding debt to the University, or any disciplinary on your record.
