Returning undergraduate students
Most University of York owned accommodation is available for first year's only, however a small number of rooms are allocated to returning students every year.
2025/26 applications
Returning undergraduate accommodation applications for 2025/26 will open later this year. The criteria set for 2024/25 is likely to be the same for 2025/26. Check back for confirmed details.
2024/25 criteria
Due to a limited availability of on-campus rooms for returning undergraduates, rooms were offered and allocated based on the following priority groups:
-
students with additional requirements that cannot be supported off campus
-
students who have had their care leaver/estranged status confirmed by the Independent Student team
-
students returning from a work placement in the UK or study/work placement abroad, or planning such a placement in 2024/25*
* Students who are planning a placement in 2024/25 needed to have registered for or be actively pursuing a placement to have been considered for a room offer.
If you do not fall into one of these categories we advise you to look for accommodation in the private sector.
