These town houses opened in September and provide study bedroom accommodation with modern large kitchens and communal areas. Have a look at our Virtual Tour here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Rooms will be offered based on the completion date of our halls of residence application process. If you complete this application process by 2nd July 2018 you will be guaranteed a Halls of Residence room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"heading is-2--mobile is-6 wp-block-heading\">University Approved Housing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">These are flats and houses that landlords have registered with the University that meet high safety standards and have been visited by Accommodation Staff. These are not managed or allocated by the University. Students contact the landlord directly to arrange viewings. It is important that you view a property before signing a contract. The tenancy period for a student house is usually from Mid September to late June. You can find out more here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"heading is-2--mobile is-6 wp-block-heading\">Lodgings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"> This is accommodation where you live in the landlord\u2019s home. The University advertises these properties, but no visits have been made and the University does not manage or allocate these rooms. You would not sign a contract in this type of accommodation, although you would give notice as agreed with the landlord usually between one week and one month. You can find out more here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"heading is-2--mobile is-6 wp-block-heading\">I want to live with other Post Grad students, can you help?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"> In Halls of Residence, we will try to allocate you with Post Grad students wherever possible. However, this is not guaranteed. In University approved housing there is a message board facility on our StudentPad website. This is a great way to communicate with other postgraduate students. This will enable you to get together with other postgraduate students and find a property. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"heading is-2--mobile is-6 wp-block-heading\">I\u2019ve found a house. What do I do next? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The landlord will ask you pay a deposit to sign a tenancy. Please read through our \u2018Renting the Perfect Pad\u2019 guide before doing this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"heading is-2--mobile is-6 wp-block-heading\">I want to move out of my House\/Halls before the end of the academic year, is that possible?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"> Details on these should be clearly stated in your tenancy. Contracts normally state you will be liable for the rent of your room until a suitable replacement is found. This is the case for Halls of Residence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"heading is-2--mobile is-6 wp-block-heading\">If I leave University will I be liable for rent for the whole year?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\"> Details on these should be clearly stated in your tenancy. Contracts normally state that if you decide to leave University you will be liable for rent up to the day you vacate your room plus a cancellation fee (this is four weeks in Halls of Residence.) However, this is not always the case so make sure you are fully aware before you sign your tenancy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Accommodation options for postgraduate students.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_searchwp_excluded":"","footnotes":""},"schools":[],"campuses":[],"subject_area":[],"ht-kb-category":[33],"ht-kb-tag":[],"class_list":["post-180","ht_kb","type-ht_kb","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","ht_kb_category-accommodation"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.glos.ac.uk\/information\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht-kb\/180","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.glos.ac.uk\/information\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht-kb"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.glos.ac.uk\/information\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/ht_kb"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.glos.ac.uk\/information\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.glos.ac.uk\/information\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=180"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.glos.ac.uk\/information\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht-kb\/180\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3742,"href":"https:\/\/www.glos.ac.uk\/information\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht-kb\/180\/revisions\/3742"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.glos.ac.uk\/information\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=180"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"schools","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.glos.ac.uk\/information\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/schools?post=180"},{"taxonomy":"campuses","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.glos.ac.uk\/information\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/campuses?post=180"},{"taxonomy":"subject_area","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.glos.ac.uk\/information\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/subject_area?post=180"},{"taxonomy":"ht_kb_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.glos.ac.uk\/information\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht-kb-category?post=180"},{"taxonomy":"ht_kb_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.glos.ac.uk\/information\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ht-kb-tag?post=180"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
