If you are an International Student arriving to take up occupancy of an accommodation room, please ensure that you book and pay your Advance Rent payment prior to you arriving at University Accommodation, if you do arrive on Campus and have not pre-booked your University Accommodation, please be advised that you are NOT able to make any cash payments on Campus.  We also recommend that you do not walk around the Campuses with large amounts of cash on your person.

As soon as you have arrived in the accommodation you will be sent an invoice for your residential year and outlined on the invoice will be the instalment dates and values you need to pay.

If you have not paid your fees by the due date you will be sent email reminder letters from the Income Section in the finance team.

Struggling to pay the fees in the set instalments

Upon receiving your initial invoice and you would like help to break down the fees into more regular and smaller payments, please go to the accommodation office at each site and they can set you up a payment plan to assist with the management of this. Finance will be sent a copy of the payment plan and your financial account will be adjusted, if you continue to adhere to the agreed payment plan you will not receive any further reminder emails from the Income Section. If at any point during the agreed period you are unable to make payment please come inform the accommodation team straight away, if no contact is received the email debt reminders will re commence.

The end of the residential year

After each rent instalment if you have not paid the set instalments you will be contacted by the accommodation team to let you know of this debt and to contact them as soon as possible to discuss this.

At the end of the residential year if you have any outstanding accommodation debt you will not be able to extend your stay past this date or return to the accommodation the following year until this has been cleared. At this point any debt that has not been paid you will be notified and be given a set period to make payment and if no payment has been received the debt will  be referred to the external debt collection agency STA. An administration fee of £200 will be allocated to your account for the debt being passed over from the University to the external company and then all communication regarding the debt will need to held with this company not the University.
