Hey I'm coming in through clearing too and got this email today when I sent off my accommodation form (not sure if you guys got this email too so thought I'd share it sorry if you all already know this)
"We hope that we will be able to find you a permanent single room within our halls of residence. If we are unable to do so,*we may be able to house you temporarily in a shared room until a single room becomes available and/or invite you to a mixing day where we will assist you in finding private accommodation in partnership with Unipol - a housing charity affiliated with the University of Leeds that specialise in student housing. There are approximately 4000 vacant student beds in Leeds so you will definitely be able to find accommodation with other freshers."
So it sounds like if they can't offer us uni accommodation they will help us find accommodation elsewhere from what I understand?
Hope this helps someone if they didn't get this email
