Undergraduate New Students' Guarantee

In your first year of study you are guaranteed a place in University-owned or Managed Partnership accommodation. This is provided you meet ALL the requirements below:

  • you have accepted our offer of a place at Newcastle as your firm choice university before 30 June, and
  • you are coming alone to the University for the full academic year, and
  • you live in an area from which it would be unreasonable to commute to the University by public transport (reasonable being determined by distance and travel time), and
  • you have completed the online Accommodation Application by 30 June of your year of entry.

The guarantee may involve some temporary sharing at the start of term. Mature undergraduate students (25+) will be offered accommodation with postgraduate students.

Not covered by the Guarantee?

If you are not covered by the guarantee, you are still welcome to apply for a place in University accommodation. Your details will be put on a waiting list and you will be contacted when a room becomes available.
