    Kingston Calendar // Accommodation
    Kingston being my firm place, and having accumulated the amount of UCAS points needed to go i was wondering if anyone knew the days lectures are on, more importantly the days we get off?

    Plus has anyone received accommodation in halls yet? Mines currently on pending and was wondering if it's the same for you guys, any help would be nice!

    Hey, To anyone that hasn't sorted out their accommodation please contact me. Looking to make up a group of boys to move into a house next year at Kingston University. I've heard all the accommodation emails have been sent out so if you know that you still want to move out and didn't get halls i'm looking to make up a group of 3/4. Let me know asap so we can get a deposit sorted out on a house around the area before they all go/the rent goes higher!

    posted most of this already.

    Accommodation emails won't all have been sent out, as UK results day hasn't been, I found out about halls on 20th august last year. there is a cut off date for APPLYING to halls, however don't know that date. There are also quite a few rooms available and email accommodation as if you have a place confirmed by the uni and are 100% going there, they can give you access to certain things that you can't see without a password.

    also read HERE

    from having trawled the vast majority of estate agents this year in kingston, this is roughly what you'd expect to pay and have available as a deposit:

    6 weeks rent as deposit
    first months rent
    £100-£150 admin fee each

    I'm also in a flat, that has 2 spare rooms, but you'll have to go through estate agents, message me for info for rooms though. ones a single and ones a double and they are cheap for Kingston, ideal for Kingston Hill/Roehampton Vale, but people at PR/KP the uni bus goes past and bus stop bout minute away.


    BE AWARE if a house seems very cheap it is usually because it is awful, the majority of the good cheap housing will have gone or will go before results day. Most 2nd/3rd years will have their names down on a house, but they still sppear online until all the paperwork is done, have found that out several times.
