You can apply for University of York and YHA properties online once you have accepted a conditional or unconditional course place. If we're able to offer you accommodation we'll do so once you've accepted an unconditional course place.

• You must pay a £500 damage deposit, refunded at the end of your let, dependent on the condition of the property.
• Properties are let for 51 weeks with no option to renew for a further year.

Arriving early/pre-sessional courses

Unfortunately, you can't move into your accommodation before your contract start date. You'll need to book other accommodation until then. See York Tourist Office for information about where to stay.

If you have an unconditional firm offer for a pre-sessional course, it may be possible to allocate you family housing to cover the course time. Please put a request in the comment section when you apply.
