Returner 2019/20 - Cancellation process

All students will have seven days (the Initial Seven Day Period) from the payment date of their deposit (the payment date is counted as the first day) to cancel an allocation/room offer and receive a full refund of the deposit (provided the Licence Agreement does not begin within this seven day period).

After the Initial Seven Day Period as defined in regulation 9.12, the following accommodation cancellation charges will apply to cover the Replacement Costs:

  • By 31 March 2019: £50
  • By 1 August 2019: £75
  • By 31 August 2019:£100
  • From 1 September 2019: £250 (£350 for studio flats)

However if a contract is cancelled within 7 days of the Licence Agreement start date, £250 (£350 for studio flats) the deposit will be retained by the University to cover the Replacement Costs.

NOTE: If you have submitted both a studio and single room application the above conditions will apply to both applications i.e. two charges will be made, one for each application.

All cancellations must be put in writing to the Accommodation Centre by completing the online cancellation request form located in the Accommodation Centre Student Hub.
