If your Tenancy is for a room in Wales, please contact us directly as a different cooling off period may apply. If you do that, you will not be charged and we will return your deposit or any Advance Rent Payments you have made.

2. Once the 7 Day Cooling-Off-Period has expired, you will have to pay all amounts due under your Tenancy Agreement unless a replacement Tenant is found for your Room in accordance with this policy, or you enter a new Tenancy with Unite Students.
