How can I withdraw from University accommodation early?

Residents may give notice to leave their residence at the end of the first semester. If you give notice after the first semester deadline, you will remain liable for the entire license period unless another resident is found to take over the room.

You must give notice in writing by completing a Withdrawal Form and submitting it by email to the Accommodation team.

For full information on the withdrawal process and deadlines, please visit our moving out early and swapping rooms page.

You will be liable for the payment of your room rent up to the end of the first semester unless we are able to re-let your room earlier. In the event that we are able to arrange a re-let, you need only pay until the date the new person moves in.

You can also view our residents' guide (PDF) for more information.
