Semester dates

Contact your department directly for specific dates and non-standard semester dates (e.g. Hull York Medical School and Health, Nursing and Midwifery programmes).

Money

Accommodation fees are paid in instalments in October, January and April, and coincide with student loan payments.

We take care of the fiddly bits, so you can concentrate on the important stuff – settling in and getting to lectures. Insurance, internet and utility bills are included in your rent with most properties, so there’s less for you to sort out. It makes budgeting easier, too.

We also offer a range of scholarships and bursaries to help with living costs.
