Our Clearing accommodation

We have living options across campus and the city, each supported by our college communities. There are plenty of ways to find your home from home.

If you apply through Clearing (after A-Level results day on 13 August 2026), you will be eligible to apply for University-owned and managed on-campus accommodation, or approved off-campus options.

More details will be provided in the summer of 2026. A limited number of options will be available, and while accommodation cannot be guaranteed, we will try our best to assist you in securing a place before your studies begin.

Our Accommodation Team will be on hand to offer advice and support. If you have any questions, get in touch at accommodation@york.ac.uk – we're here to help.
