Applying for on-campus accommodation

Bookings are now open for new and continuing students for September 2024

Apply now

We can guarantee accommodation for all new students (deadlines apply).

Applications for September 2024 are now open and you can apply for a room on campus once you have applied to the University. 

Please see Contracts page for full accommodation terms and conditions.

All full-time and part-time students, home, EU and overseas students are eligible to apply for on-campus accommodation. Part-time students will be expected to accept full-time tenancies.

Full details of the deadlines for both are in our 'accommodation guarantee'.

How to complete the online application - new students

You need to have a firm offer from the University and your Roehampton Student ID number. It may also be referred to as your Student reference. If you should have any difficulty with locating this, please contact Accommodation.

You need to choose your three preferred accommodation blocks. Please include all additional information which will help us to place you in the most suitable accommodation that you want (for instance if you prefer to live on a particular floor, live with friends, or in a single sex flat). We will do our best to meet your preferences as much as possible, depending on date of application and room availability.

If you are a UK student and you don't know how much you will be receiving for your maintenance loan, you can use this student finance calculator to get an estimate of how much you will get.

If you have a medical condition or disability which means you need a particular room type or are unable to live off campus, please include this information. You need to complete and return the forms, part of which involves obtaining confirmation from a medical professional. If you are supported by Disability Services you will have priority for a room on-campus for all years you require accommodation.

If you miss the guarantee deadlines you should still apply for accommodation. The online application remains open and your application will be considered on a first come first served basis.

How to complete the online application - continuing students

If you are a current student who has previously created an account, then you don't need to make an account again, you can log in with your Student ID number. If you have previously been required to leave University accommodation because of behaviour or have rental arrears for university accommodation, you are not eligible to apply.

There is a variety of on-campus accommodation available to continuing students across all the colleges for 2024/25 including full flats so you can book with your friends.

The accommodation available for continuing students is shown on the individual block webpages and you can opt to book as a group on your application. Rooms are offered on a first come first served basis. Applications open in January for September intake.

Accepting a room

Offers of accommodation are sent via email during the summer time. To accept a room you will need to follow the instructions in your offer email and pay the deposit, provide payment details and agree the Terms and Conditions.

Please read through the information on this page then apply using the link above.

When you accept your offer, this is a legally binding contract. Please see Contracts page for the full terms and conditions, which contains important information.

Should we not be able to offer you a room we will let you know as soon as possible and keep your name on the waiting list. Often, once term has started, rooms become available, and you will be offered according to the date of your application. We will also help you in finding off-campus accommodation if necessary.

If you have any questions or comments on any of the above please contact us via accommodation@roehampton.ac.uk
