Description

Following the sale of University Hall, the University needs to secure additional rooms in the private sector to meet accommodation demand and support its accommodation guarantee commitments linked to student recruitment. The number of rooms required is based on student recruitment intake forecasts, historic accommodation take-up rates and future accommodation demand modelling. The rooms will be offered as part of the University's accommodation portfolio and allocated in accordance with the University's accommodation allocation procedures. Once accommodation has been allocated, student details and room allocations will be provided to the accommodation provider for the issue of accommodation contracts. The accommodation contract will be between the provider and the student. Once the student has accepted their accommodation contract and any applicable cooling-off period has expired, the contractual relationship sits directly between the provider and the student. The University is required to secure accommodation at an early stage to ensure the rooms can be incorporated into accommodation allocation systems, published within accommodation marketing materials and made available as part of the accommodation application process which opens in February 2027 for the 2027/28 academic year. Delays in securing accommodation would reduce the University's ability to present a complete accommodation portfolio to prospective students and may adversely affect room allocation and occupancy outcomes. The requirement is for a Nominations Agreement with a private provider of purpose-built student accommodation.
