In some circumstances, the University may be able to consider short-term accommodation support where a student is experiencing an urgent housing crisis.

This is not automatically available and will depend upon:

  • the urgency of your situation;
  • your safety and vulnerability;
  • what other accommodation is available to you;
  • whether University accommodation is available;
  • your longer-term housing options;
  • affordability;
  • whether temporary accommodation is likely to help resolve the situation.

Where short-term University-funded accommodation is considered, this is intended to provide breathing space while a sustainable housing plan is developed.

It is not normally intended to provide a permanent housing solution.
