Moving in early
You may wish to move into your accommodation before the start of your contract.
Accommodation and Campus Services is the department to agree to any "early move" in dates.
September Arrivals
It MAY be possible to move into your accommodation early.
This is because most properties are vacated in June and then are randomly let over the summer period.
It MAY be possible to move into your accommodation early, however, you will be responsible for a "daily charge", this can range from £9 - £15 per night until the start of your contract date.
Whenver possible the Accommodation Office will move you into "your" room, however, if "your" room is not available, you will be offer the opportunity to stay in other "University accommodation" and then move into "your" room when it is ready.
This process is the responsibilty and decision of Accommodation and Campus Services and we cannot guarantee that this will definately be available.
