Please also refer to our 'Look out for fraud' section, which highlights the potential risks of booking accommodation privately.
To provide assurance of accommodation availability, we have introduced an Accommodation Commitment. So students can be sure of getting a room offer.
To be eligible for our Accommodation Commitment and secure a formal room offer, students need to complete the following simple steps:
Return your Acceptance Form to confirm your study offer, and make applicable payments, by 26th July 2024 (5pm UK time) to be eligible for a room offer and receive personalised instructions on how to apply.
You will then need to apply for their accommodation by 2nd of August 2024 (5pm UK time) using the instructions and process provided for their Centre. Students will then receive a formal room offer.
Once you have your room offer, you need to complete the application process within the specific time frames provided in order to secure your room.
The Accommodation Commitment applies to courses starting in September and October 2024 only. Rooms are generally allocated on a first come first served basis however specific groups may be prioritised where appropriate, such as students with specific medical conditions or those aged under 18. Students under 18 years of age may be limited to specific accommodation types.
It is important to arrange your accommodation before you arrive in the UK. Not only will this give you peace of mind that you know where you will be staying, this will ensure that you have no difficulty confirming your course at immigration or police registration (if required).
Please note, the accommodation options available may depend on your study start date. Once you have confirmed your place on the course – and have indicated on your application that you would like International Study Centre accommodation – we will contact you to advise you on the residences available to you.
If you have any queries regarding your accommodation options, you can contact the HuddersfieldISC.CSS@studygroup.com who are available for any help or advice you may need.
Scammers may specifically target international students so it is important to be able to recognise common signs of fraudulent activity and know what to do if you come across it. Let us know at fraudreporting@studygroup.com if you have any concerns about fraudulent activity when dealing with a private accommodation provider so that we can help to protect you and other international students in case they are targeted in the same way.
