These additional cancellation provisions apply for any individual making a booking outside of the United Kingdom.
1. Cooling Off Period – the provisions for the Cooling Off Period set out in the main Cancellation Policy shall apply;
2. After the Cooling Off Period - Once the Cooling Off Period has expired the Tenant remains liable for the rent for the whole length of the tenancy unless they want to cancel with one of these 3 conditions:
- No Place No Pay: the provisions for No Place No Pay set out in the main Cancellation Policy shall apply, save that this option shall not be available after the 31st August in the year the Tenancy Start Date is due to occur.
- No Visa No Pay:if the student doesn’t get their visa to come and study in the UK, the student must send us the visa application rejection letter within 7 days of receiving it. On receipt of the required documentation, it will be verified and, provided we are satisfied, we will cancel your Tenancy Agreement and refund any deposit or advance rent paid in full. This option shall not be available after the 31st August in the year the Tenancy Start Date is due to occur.
No ATAS certificate, No Pay: Some international students coming to the UK to study in very specific fields need to apply for an ATAS certificate. (Academic Technology Approval Scheme). If a student’s ATAS certificate application is rejected the student must send us the ATAS certificate application rejection letter within 7 days of receiving it. On receipt of the required documentation, it will be verified and, provided we are satisfied, we will cancel your Tenancy Agreement and refund any deposit or advance rent paid in full. This option shall not be available after the 31st August in the year the Tenancy Start Date is due to occur.
The cancellation requests along with the proof documents must be sent by the student, from the email address they have registered their account with Unite Students and must be sent to internationalcancellations@unitestudents.com.
If an agent is involved the evidence must be sent to the agent and then forwarded on to internationalcancellations@unitestudents.com.
3. Replacement Tenants - the provisions for the Cooling Off Period set out in the main Cancellation Policy shall apply. Please note the point that Unite Students is under no obligation to enter into a Tenancy Agreement with any replacement Tenant that is suggested under this provision.
Passed the 31st August, the No Place No Pay and No Visa No Pay do not apply.
The student remains liable for the rent unless they find a replacement Tenant.

If there's a credit on your account, it will no longer be displayed on your account statement. However, if you have an upcoming future instalment (within the next 10 days), any previously shown credit on your account has now been utilized to offset the upcoming instalment. This means that the rent will be deducted, with the amount being reduced by the credit on your account.
Accepted bank cards for making payments on the Unite Students Website include Visa, Visa Electron, Mastercard, Maestro, and UnionPay.
Payments made via Visa, Visa Electron, Mastercard, or Maestro will be in GBP (£).
For Chinese students making payments via UnionPay credit or debit cards, payments will be displayed in GBP (£) during the payment process. However, the bank will deduct the amount in CNY or RMB (¥).
If you are an international customer and unable to pay by Direct Debit or CCRA (recurring card payment), it might be possible for you to pay via UnionPay through your online Customer Account or during your booking.
Instalment due dates are outlined in your tenancy agreement, and by accepting the contract's terms and conditions, both the customer and guarantor are accepting responsibility for payment on the provided dates. If you cannot make a payment, please communicate with your property team. They can discuss your payment options and advise you on any potential implications based on the lateness of the payment.
