Frequently Asked Questions

Can I smoke in my room?

No. As per your Licence Agreement, if you're caught smoking or tampering with smoke/fire detectors a charge may be applied to your account to cover call out charges of a fire engineer to check or repair the equipment. There are designated smoking areas at each of our developments which you are welcome to use.

What bills do I need to pay?

All utility bills (gas, electricity and water), WiFi and contents insurance for your belongings are all included. If you bring your own television or use one that is pre-installed in your room then you will have to buy your own TV licence. See www.tvlicensing.co.uk for further details.

If you cease to be a full time student during the occupation of your room then you will become liable for council tax. If the second occupant of a double occupancy room is not a student then they may also be liable for council tax.

How long is the contract?

Most of their contracts run for either 43, 44, 50 or 51 weeks. This will be indicated when you make a booking.

What is included in my rent?

All your utility bills (including super-fast broadband and WiFi) are included, as is contents insurance for your room.

Can I move in earlier or later than my licence agreement date if need be?

This depends if your room is ready, so it’s best to contact the scheme direct. You would need to pay for the extra days beforehand.

What's the best way for me to pay for my rent?

Debit card, credit card or bank transfer are all fine – make your choice when you complete your booking.

When's the latest I can book?

As long as there’s a room available. We keep our website perfectly up to date so you’ll be able to see where their spaces are.

Can I book if I'm under 18?

All residents living at one of their schemes in England are required to be over the age of 17 during the academic year booked, and residents living in their schemes in Scotland to be age 16 or over.

Exceptions may be available on a case-by-case basis, and you will need to contact the site to get approval. If in doubt, please contact the respective schemes and the on-site team will be able to advise you.

How do I apply for a visa to the uk?

You can apply for a student visa to study in the UK if you’re 16 or over and you:

- have been offered a place on a course by a licensed student sponsor

- have enough money to support yourself and pay for your course - the amount will vary depending on your circumstances

- can speak, read, write and understand English

- have consent from your parents if you’re 16 or 17 - you’ll need evidence of this when you apply

How do I open a bank account?

The UK has lots of banks, including National Westminster (NatWest), Barclays, RBS, Santander, HSBC and Lloyds. All of these offer special bank accounts for students, which usually include an interest-free overdraft. All high street banks have the same basic range of services – savings accounts, credit cards, overseas cash transfers and so on – but they offer different deals to attract new customers, so shop around to find your favourite.

To open a bank account you’ll need to visit a branch of your bank (check to see if your chosen bank has a branch near your management location) with the appropriate ID. Your passport, driving licence and one or two forms of proof of address (such as a bill or licence) will usually be enough. Bank accounts take a few days to get up and running, so try to open yours before you leave for university – or make sure you have a credit card to keep you going when you arrive.

If I want to get a part-time job, where should I look for opportunities?

You’ll find that your student union often has job adverts, and if you’re looking for shop, bar or restaurant work you can usually spot “Help wanted” signs in the shop windows. Your local Jobcentre will also have opportunities – simply head to the website and search by area.

How do I register with a doctor?

Most surgeries now offer online registration – once you’ve found your local GP, check their website. Check with them too for any recommendations.

If I'm an international student can I open a bank account in the uk?

No problem – you’ll just need the same identification as other students. Take your passport, driving licence and at least one proof of address document such as a bill or licence. If you can get a letter from your bank at home recommending you, that’s even better – but you don’t strictly need this, and you absolutely do need the ID mentioned above.

Is bedding included with the room?

No, but you can purchase bedding and other items from their partner UniKitOut .

Are there fridges in the rooms?

Yes – each studio or flat kitchen has a fridge with freezer compartment. Unfortunately, you cannot bring your own fridge as this would invalidate their insurance.

The accommodation is the perfect distance away from the university campus. The reception allows for plenty of socialising with the pool table, table tennis table and seating area and as a whole is very good value for money for what you are provided with. Very lovely staff, everyone’s friendly, big enough to socialise and get to know people. Maintenance is always prompt to fix issues.
