If you are made an offer of accommodation it will contain information and guidance about the terms and conditions that apply to your residency in accommodation, and the regulations applicable to University residences.
Please ensure you read all the information in your offer in full before making your decision whether to accept the offer of accommodation.
The accommodation offer contains information that will help make your stay at the University of Exeter as easy and as pleasant as possible. The information it contains is not exhaustive but may give answers to some questions about your accommodation.
Please be aware that if you have lived in University accommodation before and have committed a breach of any of the Terms and Conditions of Residence, or had disciplinary action taken against you, or been removed from your accommodation, this will be taken into account when considering any future application you may make for University accommodation and your application may be refused.
Many of the student residences in Exeter are owned and managed by the University, however some are either owned or managed by carefully selected partners. These partners will usually employ their own staff to carry out services such as reception, cleaning and maintenance.
