Frequent Asked Question (FAQ's)
How much is the Advanced License Fee?
To secure your accommodation, you’ll need to pay a 2 Weeks Advanced License Fee at the point of booking. This fee covers you for your first two weeks' stay with us and is deducted from the total amount due. The license fee amount differs depending on the price of the room you pick, and this will be shown at the point of booking.
Do you allow short term lets?
They have some studios and rooms available with shorter contracts in their residences across the UK. Perfect if you are only studying for a term at a time or on a language course that lasts a few months.
Can I move in early?
In most cases - yes! This is dependent on whether the room you have booked is available and will be subject to an additional cost. To check availability and arrange an early move-in please contact the Customer Engagement Team
Can I view the accommodation?
Absolutely the best way to see what we're all about is to come down and see for yourself. Not only can they do in-person viewings, but if you're overseas they can also host remote viewings.
Who is eligible to book with them?
Any person who will turn 18 within the year they live with them and is a student enrolled with an educational institution can live with them at any of their developments across the UK. Professionals are accepted for the accommodation in Newcastle.
If I am doing an internship/placement year or part-time course, am I allowed to live? yes
Do you allow couples to stay / visit?
We love having couples live in our accommodation and it’s ideal if you want to share the license fee with someone else. There is a 20% price increase to cover the additional usage of electricity and water, internet, and wear and tear to the accommodation and communal spaces. The Advance License Fee remains the same for two people sharing a room.
