Accommodation Guarantees

You are guaranteed accommodation for the next academic year if you have:

• Chosen Swansea as your first or insurance (second) choice university
• Applied for accommodation by 30 July
• Confirmed your acceptance to study by 20 August

To be guaranteed a place in halls of residence you must:

• Be studying full-time
• Meet the terms of your offer from Swansea
• Apply for accommodation by 30 June (applications received after 30 July are allocated by date alongside insurance and clearing students).

The above guarantee of halls of residence accommodation does not apply to clearing and late applications; however, we do try to extend this to them if possible.

Please note that the guarantee is for a room in halls of residences, we are not able to guarantee specific rooms, blocks or residence sites as some residences are very popular and heavily subscribed.

Priority for university residences is given to international postgraduate students. All international postgraduate students are eligible to apply for university accommodation.

We will have some rooms available in university residences for UK postgraduate students, and we welcome these applications. Additionally, many students will decide to live off-campus in a shared house or flat. Visit our private sector housing page to search for available rooms and properties.
