How to Book Accommodation

• The Booking Procedure for new students

We will process accommodation allocation for new undergraduates in batches once every two weeks. This will ensure that we manage the supply of available rooms. Every two weeks we will release sufficient rooms for those undergraduate students who have met their conditions but have not yet been offered a room. As wide a selection of rooms will be offered as is possible and practicable. Everyone who is offered a room, will have to make their selection from the rooms available at that time, unless you have particular needs relating to a disability which you have discussed with the admissions team in advance.

• The Booking Procedure for continuing students

We will process accommodation allocation for continuing undergraduate students following the accommodation annual calendar or events. Everyone who is offered a room, will have to make their selection from the rooms available at that time, unless you have particular needs related to a disability which you have discussed with the Welfare team in advance.

• The Booking Procedure for new students

Booking portal links will be sent to new postgraduate students following the annual calendar of events and after final approval by the PAO. Once registered, your accommodation application and confirmation of booking is all done online through the accommodation portal.

• The Booking Procedure for continuing students

Booking portal links will be sent to continuing postgraduate students following the annual calendar of events above. PhD students in their fourth year and beyond will not be allocated accommodation unless they can prove they will be paying Tuition Fees. No exception is made if the student did not live in College in one of the previous 3 years.

St Edmund’s College offers a range of accommodation options for couples and families. Our couple studios are located in the Mount Pleasant Halls building. Additionally, there are three couple studio/flats available in our Maisonettes.

Family accommodation is also available on the College Campus. St Edmund’s College offers two- and three- bedroom flats located in the Geoffrey Cook Building.

Family and couples’ accommodation cannot be booked through the online portal straight away due to limited availability, please contact the Accommodation Office directly to book.

We hope to offer our students reasonable adjustments regarding accessibility needs. The College has a very limited number of accessible rooms. Access to these rooms is medically supported.

Medical and disability needs Requests for accommodation that include provision for medical and/or disability needs should be notified to the College as early as possible. Medical or other reports are required, and these can take time to obtain and evaluate.
