What happens after getting a place?

Take a tour

Keep an eye out for emails from us, setting out what to do next, as well as an invitation to take a tour of our campus if you live in the UK. Our 2025 Clearing campus tours will take place from 18-22 August. You can also take a virtual tour at any time through our Visit UoY app.

After applying for accommodation, we’ll also send you more information about your college.

Accept your offer

Once we’ve made you an offer, you’ll need to accept it on your UCAS Hub by the deadline we provide.

Sign in to your UCAS Hub (ucas.com)

Apply for accommodation

Our living options are supported by our college communities to make York feel like home. You're guaranteed an offer of a room in accommodation owned, managed or approved by the University if you meet certain criteria after getting a Clearing place.
