The University nominates a specific number of Upper Quay rooms for use from the start of each academic year. Collegiate then offer these rooms to University of Gloucestershire students at the price advertised based on a 42-week contract. Once these nominated rooms are filled, Collegiate will offer rooms based on their availability. Their ensuite rooms are categorised as Bronze, Silver and Gold, and feature various contract lengths and different rents per week. You can see full details on the Collegiate website.
