Understanding the Accommodation Contract

All Contracts are issued under a Licence to Occupy basis.

The Undergraduate Freshers Licence contract allows the rental of a room for term time only (approx. 8 weeks each term) and does not include any vacation periods.  If you wish to occupy the accommodation outside of these periods this must be applied for and agreed, in advance, with the Accommodation Services Manager. This may involve moving to a temporary room for the vacation period and is subject to availability.

Undergraduate Finalists can select a term time or 9 month contract (academic year contract) which covers the three academic terms, the Christmas and Easter vacations. Graduate students can select an academic year or 12 month contract, which covers most of the summer break, generally up to 15 September.
