We are committed to helping you through any period of self-isolation (quarantine) which may still be in place in October. Therefore we are offering free accommodation for the two weeks before your normal residence contract start date. This is for students arriving from outside the UK and who have chosen university owned and managed accommodation for the academic year 2020/21.
