Process for assigning College accommodation

St Catharine's aims to offer accommodation to all new full-time graduate students in their first year, who have requested accommodation by 15th August and who have been officially admitted by the University by 1 September. In exceptional years e.g. where intake is high, we may be unable to achieve this aim. Those applying later in the academic year, or for just one term may be offered accommodation if there are vacancies available. We advise students starting in Lent or Easter term to contact the accommodation office directly to discuss their options. Accommodation in subsequent years is offered strictly subject to availability.

Eligible students will be asked to indicate whether they wish to live in College accommodation when their College membership is confirmed, with accommodation offers made once admission is confirmed by the University Postgraduate Admissions Office. Accommodation is allocated on a first come-first served basis based on when students meet the conditions of their offer. We will endeavour to offer rooms based on your preferences as selected in the request form, subject to availability and demand. 

We are only able to offer accommodation for part time students if their hours of study are more than 21 hours per week.
