Accommodation is offered to all students able to sign a 40+ week long lease. Students will rank their preferred accommodation and will be assigned a random number determining the accommodation they receive, you can either ballot as an individual or group. If more students apply for accommodation than there is available, then students who did not ballot high enough will be put on a waiting list. Clinical medicine and veterinary medicine students are guaranteed accommodation so may be moved up the ballot if needed. The College will contact all eligible students with further details sent out prior to the ballot opening.
