Applying for halls of residence
Find out how to apply for halls of residence at UoG.
September 2025 entry
The Halls of Residence application process for September 2025 is now open. We still have rooms available across our halls of residence in Cheltenham and Gloucester for students starting in September 2025 and January 2026.
Apply online
To begin your application you’ll need:
- To have accepted an unconditional/conditional offer or be a returning student
- A university network account
You can choose up to three halls and room types on your application. Rooms are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis so we cannot guarantee you will get your first choice.
When do I get confirmation that I’ve been allocated a room?
2025/26 room offers will be sent from April 2025.
2024/25 room offers for University managed halls of residence are normally sent to the email address you registered with UCAS within 2 weeks of receiving your application. You will need to make a payment of £200 and set up a direct debit for your rent payment.
This will include instructions on completing the room acceptance process via our halls portal where you will be given details of your room, dates of occupancy, rent and full terms and conditions.
You will need to make a payment of £200 at this time and set up a direct debit for rent payment within seven days of receiving your room offer. If you accept an offer of a place in residence, you will be signing a legally-binding contract for the full period stated on the offer letter.
Your room offer email will also include a link to a webpage featuring arrival details and other useful information.
Students with disabilities
The university’s halls of residence have accessible rooms on all campuses. These rooms tend to be larger than the other rooms in halls with more accessible bathroom facilities and flexible interiors to suit the level of need required.
The university endeavours to accommodate the needs of students with disabilities. In order to assist the accommodation office with specific requirements, we encourage you to initially contact one of our disability advisers.
Call 01242 714541 or email [email protected] and to talk to us about your requirements.
