Undergraduate accommodation applications (2025/26) are now open
Posted on 11 November 2024
If you do not submit your application by this deadline, your interest in on-campus accommodation will not be registered. All applications are considered and rooms are not allocated on a “first-come, first-served” basis.
As a reminder, accommodation will be allocated based on priority groups. We welcome applications from:
- Students under 18 at the start of the 2025/26 academic year
- Students with additional requirements that can't be supported off campus
- Students confirmed as care leavers or estranged 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 2025/26*
*Students who are planning a placement in 2025/26 will need to have registered for or be actively pursuing a placement to be considered for a room offer.
If you do not fall into these groups, we recommend exploring private housing options as on campus availability for returning undergraduates is limited. The Student Hub, Colleges and York SU offer free housing support and events with no bookings required, including:
- Private housing contract checking
- Private housing drop-in sessions
- Flatmate finder events
- An annual Housing Fair
