It’s arrived! May we take this opportunity to congratulate you all on your A-Level results. We hope you all got what you wanted and we really look forward to meeting you in September and welcoming you to the University of Exeter.
Undergraduate students – Coming to Exeter but didn’t meet the accommodation guarantee deadline?
University accommodation
If, after receiving your results, you have decided to come to the University of Exeter for 2017/18 and have not yet applied for accommodation, you have unfortunately missed the deadline to have a guaranteed offer of accommodation from the University. However, you are still able to submit an application online once your academic offer has been made firm through UCAS and with our Admissions Team. Once you receive a firm offer, please allow at least one working day for your information to update on our system and follow the information below.
- Read the information on our ‘Applying from 1 August onwards‘ page to see which rooms are likely to be available*.
- See our prospective students webpages for further information on the different accommodation types and the three standards of rooms we have available.
- Make a decision about the type of accommodation you would prefer.
- Follow the information on our ‘how to apply‘ webpage.
- Activate an Accommodation Account. (Links to our ‘how to’ video).
- Submit an application for accommodation. (Links to our ‘how to’ video).
*Please note that accommodation applications made after the guarantee deadline will be dealt with on a first come, first served basis in date order of receipt. We are currently assessing whether we will have rooms available and we will be sending an update to those students who have submitted an application to us and whether we are able to offer you a bed space by the begining of September.
Remember that we if you offered accommodation you will need to ensure that you have approximately £300.00 available in order to pay your accommodation deposit and to confirm your booking.
Private housing:
If you prefer to live elsewhere you can search for private accommodation in the city through landlords, purpose-built accommodation through large providers or through student letting agencies via our StudentPad website. For help and advice about this, please see our blog post about searching for private accommodation. We have also created a dedicated ‘private housing‘ webpage which provides up to date information on what is currently available within the city for students joining us in September 2017. This list will continue to be added to.
Undergraduate students – Coming to Exeter and applied before the guarantee deadline?
We will start sending accommodation offers out from Monday 21 August to those students who had Exeter as their first choice of University, applied for accommodation before the guarantee deadline and have now received a confirmed academic place at our Exeter campuses. You will receive an email to advise you when the offer is ready for you to view. We will send these offers out in batches up until Friday 25 August, so please don’t think that if you haven’t heard earlier in the week that you have missed out. We encourage you to check our ‘Room Allocation Procedure‘ for information on how we allocate rooms.
If you have any enquiries about the application process, please contact us on 0300 555 0444 and we will be happy to help.
