Accommodation for Visiting Students

Our undergraduate visiting students accommodation guarantee 

You’re guaranteed an offer of a single-occupancy room in accommodation owned, managed or approved by the University, if you meet the following criteria:

• You accept an unconditional offer to study at York for Semester 1, starting your course in September by 5pm on 30 June 2025.
• You will begin your studies at York according to the standard semester schedule.

Your room offer

We'll send Semester 1 room offers in July 2025 and Semester 2 room offers in December 2025. 

We do not use specific blocks or rooms for visiting students, so we cannot guarantee a particular room type. We'll allocate you into flats with other visiting students or rooms in accommodation with undergraduate students. Learn more about our accommodation, colleges, rooms and prices. 

We'll send a room offer to your York email. Make sure you check this regularly, as the room offer has an expiry date.

Additional requirements

If you need a specific room for medical, welfare or mobility reasons, please email us at accommodation@york.ac.uk. To find out more about additional requirements, see our health, welfare and disability page.

Please don't wait until you've received a room offer to let us know about your additional requirements, as we may not be able to find you a suitable room at that stage.

Important dates

Depending on your course dates, your contract will run for the following period:
