If you do not meet the criteria above, you are still welcome to apply and may be offered a room, as available. If you are a nursing diploma student, the guarantee and procedures do not apply. For nursing diploma students requiring London accommodation, the University Accommodation Service allocates rooms in nursing residences designated for a number of NHS trust hospitals in London. Applying for University accommodation When you receive an offer of a place on a course at the University, you should also receive an information pack on the halls of residence and an application form. All prospective students can apply for a place in halls, with the exception of applicants to the Diploma course in Nursing Studies, for whom separate arrangements are made.
Priority is given to first-year undergraduates who live outside the Greater London area.
If you live outside the Greater London area, firmly accept an offer of a place at City, and return your accommodation application form before 15 May, you are guaranteed a place in University accommodation. Applicants who do not satisfy the conditions of the guarantee will be placed on a waiting list for hall accommodation. In the summer, if you meet the conditions of your offer and you have been accepted on a course at City, the Accommodation Service will either confirm your guaranteed place in hall, or offer you a place if any rooms are available. If you do not have a place in hall, the Accommodation Service can help you find accommodation in the private sector.
