How to accept your Accommodation 'offer'

You may have a few questions about what to do next once you do receive your offer.

Luckily for you, we have put together this step by step guide to assist you...❤️️

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

1. When will I receive my offer?

We send accommodation offers in cycles. You can see our offers schedule to keep up to date on when you are likely to hear from us.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

2. Receiving your offer 📩

We will send a notification email about your offer to the same email you registered your account with when you first applied. 

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

3. Log into your account

If you have an offer for a UAL managed hall, when you receive the offer, please log in to your account on the Accommodation Portal. This is using the same account and details which you used to submit your application.

Here is where you will be able to view and read your tenancy before accepting.

If you have an offer for Chapter Lewisham, Emily Bowes Court, Furzedown Student Village or Wigram House, the housing providers will be in touch with you directly about the offer process.

3. Deadlines to accept before your offer expires

Once you receive an offer of accommodation, each offer has a deadline for you to 'accept' and sign the tenancy, before you automatically decline the offer.

If you apply in the spring, you should receive an offer on either Thursday 3 June or Thursday 1 July. From the end of July, we will send out offers daily, subject to availability.

From the end of July, we will send out offers daily, subject to availability.

If you receive an offer on either Thursday 3 June, or Thursday 1 July, you will have 10 days to accept your offer.

From the end of July, you will have 48 hours to accept your offer.

❗️Please note: Deadlines cannot be extended and offers cannot be reissued after a student has declined the offer (manually or automatically after the deadline has passed). If you have an offer for Chapter Lewisham, Emily Bowes Court, Furzedown Student Village or Wigram House, the deadlines process may vary, but they will give you all the information you need to know about this.❗️

4. Accepting and your payment plan

If you would like to accept the offer, you will have to pay an advanced payment and set up a payment plan for your rent.

Remember: Termly rent will be automatically collected from the credit/debit card that you use to pay the deposit and set up your payment plan.

If you wish to use a different card for rent payments, you and/or the cardholder will need to contact our Finance Team on +44 (0)20 7514 6240 or this will be automatically processed.

5. Advance rent payment and deposit

For UAL managed halls*, the advance payment is made up of:

👉 This payment must be paid in full to accept your offer 👈 

For our partner halls, terms and conditions when accepting your offer may differ.
Instructions on how to accept will be emailed directly to you from the partner hall.

Find the full breakdown of each hall's advance payment.

Once you have read the tenancy agreement, paid the £500 and set up the payment schedule you will need to click "accept". ☑️

- Then, you are all done! Roll on September ❤️️
