Over the past couple of weeks we have taken part in a live Facebook Q&A session with some of our offer holders joining us in 2016. This week’s blog is answering some of the common questions:
Do I have to complete my application in one go or can I save it and return to it?
The online application does not have to be completed in one go. You are able to save it and return to it at any time. Please be aware though that as soon as you are ready to submit your application that you check the application state shows as ‘submitted’. This means that it has been received by the Accommoadtion Office. A confirmation email will be sent to you once it has been received. Please see our ‘Track your application‘ pages for further information about the application states. For information on creating an application, please see our ‘How to submit an application for accommodation‘ video.
Which residence is closest to my college?
Not all lectures for a specific college will take place in that particular academic building and lecture points may vary in their location. We therefore recommend that students look at the type of accommodation they would prefer and base their choices on the individual residences. If being close to your college is particularly appealing to you then you can find out more about it’s location and what’s nearby by visiting our interactive map.
When are we able to move in to our accommodation?
Arrivals weekend takes between Friday 9 – Sunday 11 September. All contracts start on 11 September and arrival times of residences are spread out across that weekend. We will be advising students via our Facebook page, our website and this blog once the arrivals booking system is open for students to book their arrival time with us.
Freshers’ Week takes place between Monday 12 – Friday 16 September 2016.
Offer Holder Visit Day
Our final Offer Holder Visit Day of the year takes place this Friday 22 April. If you have any questions then do pop by and see us. More information about this event is available within our previous blog post.
Next week we will be answering more of your frequently asked questions.
