Students can contact Campus West reception to let us know, and we can provide trolleys or if the parcel is extremely large we can look at alternative methods of having the parcel brought to your accommodation.
Contact the relevant campus reception (West / East) and we can assist. We would also recommend looking at the campus map for information.
Our reception team will unlock any rooms in use that day in the morning, so access will already be available, for any guidance we are available at the relevant campus reception (West / East) in person or by phone.
The opening and closing procedure will remain the same, being provided by the staff at Campus West reception and the night receptionists.
Local departments normally hold their own office keys etc., any keys that were held in individual colleges in Campus West receptions are now held at the main Campus West reception at the Information Centre.
No reception staff have, or will lose their jobs as a result of these changes.
- The check-in for students (14 and 15 September) will happen as normal. The College teams will have all the room keys / cards and they will manage the check-ins across specific hours, with reception staff on hand at receptions to help with any issues (maintenance, mail, lock outs for example). Outside of these hours, the check-ins are managed by our reception teams as normal for Campus East and through the Information Centre on West (with Halifax open 7am to 11pm on Sunday only).
- For international arrivals on Friday 13 September, the relevant teams are aware of our change to service and have altered their arrangements accordingly (e.g. shuttle bus drop offs, luggage storage).
