Questions people
actually ask

Mostly undergraduates from the two nearby campuses, and a few postgraduates.
Two rooms on the ground floor, open around the clock during term.
Pick a layout, choose your dates and fill in the form online. Applying as a group, everyone picks the same layout so the system keeps you together.
You sign for your own room and pay only your share. If a flatmate leaves, their rent is not passed on to you.
A signed agreement, one form of photo ID and proof that you are enrolled.
Only if your income is not regular yet. Most students name a parent; anyone in steady work can do it.
Usually the same working day, at the latest the next one. You hear either way rather than waiting.
Put their names on the form and we keep you together where the layout allows.
On practical things only: year, course hours and how late you keep.
Yes. A guarantor abroad is fine, or you can pay a term in advance instead.

We walk the room with you and note anything beyond ordinary wear.
