Guaranteed accommodation

DMU is offering guaranteed accommodation for UK first-year undergraduate students looking to start in the 2024/25 academic year.

We know that finding somewhere to live is an important part of your university journey, and you’ll want to choose somewhere that is safe, close to campus and has all the amenities to feel like home. That’s why if you choose to study at DMU, we will guarantee to secure your room either in DMU-owned halls or through one of our approved private accommodation partners, all within walking distance of our campus and Leicester city centre.

To be eligible, you must make DMU your firm choice (i.e have a conditional firm offer or unconditional firm offer) on or before Thursday 6 June 2024 to start in the 2024/25 academic year.

Once you have made DMU your firm choice, we will email you details on how to book your room when our accommodation booking system opens. Accommodation bookings need to be made by Thursday 13 June 2024, after which the guarantee offer will expire if a booking hasn’t been made by you. If you miss the accommodation booking deadline, don’t worry - there may still be accommodation available to book later on, but it will not form part of our ‘guarantee’ and will be subject to availability.

You can view rooms that are available on DMU's halls of residence page. If you decide to book a room directly through DMU, you can select your specific room as part of our personalised booking system. If there are no rooms on the DMU booking system which meet your requirements, the Accommodation Team will refer you to one of our private accommodation partners.

Our Accommodation Team are here to support you in the process of applying for a room, and you can get in touch with them at accommodation@dmu.ac.uk.

Terms and conditions for UK students

• Guaranteed accommodation is available to all UK first-year undergraduate students who make DMU their first/firm choice AND have become Conditional Firm/or Unconditional Firm on or before Thursday 6 June 2024 and intend to start in the 2024/25 academic year (September intake only).

   

• Accommodation must be booked by Thursday 13 June 2024, after which the guaranteed accommodation offer will lapse.

   

• Eligible students booking a room directly through DMU need to have made the booking payment within 24 hours of reserving the room, and confirm the room within 30 days thereafter.

   

• For a room with an approved private provider, you may need to book directly with that provider under the guidance and support of our Accommodation Team. Bookings with a private provider are subject to that providers terms and conditions.

   

• Where possible, rooms will be recommended on the basis of the preferences that you make on our booking system. Recommended rooms could be from both DMU-owned accommodation, or through approved private providers sourced by DMU, therefore we are unable to guarantee room types, price points, locations or specific halls.

   

• DMU reserves the right to withdraw the offer of guaranteed accommodation at any time.
