Birnbeck Halls

Accommodation is usually allocated on a first-come, first served basis, although applications from those who are new to the area or who pick UCW as their ‘firm’ choice via UCAS will be prioritised. We send out our application forms to all students who have accepted an offer with us in the springtime. Students who want to live in one of our properties will need to complete the form and return it to us with a deposit cheque made payable to Skylight Property -our accommodation partner. Applicants will then receive confirmation that we have received their application and deposit. The deposit cheque will be cashed at the end of August and returned with £200 cashback once a student has moved out and it has been confirmed that the property is in the same condition as when they moved in, following an inspection of their bedroom and all the communal areas. Those who withdraw from their course less than two weeks before the start of term will lose their deposit.
