Help- withdrawing but difficulty with accomodation

I have put in my notice to withdraw which means I don't officially withdraw until the 15th of December.

The problem is, I wasn't supposed to be going home until the 19th of December. Without going into it, it would be awkward to move all of my stuff out and get home until at least the 18th.

My accommodation says that once you stop being a student, the tenancy agreement ends without any penalties and that you have to move out. Its private accommodation btw and I have already paid up until January.

My question is do you think it would be okay to ask if I could stay a few days after the 15th until the 18th or 19th?
Just phone them and ask. I am sure there would not be a problem because if there is then they will have to reimburse you what they have already taken to cover the period of time you are not in the accommodation.

You can ask for whatever you want, so I agree with above.

Thanks. I just wondered if it was a reasonable request.

I have now sent off an email and hopefully it will be okay. :smile:

Don't worry your gut was spot on, it sounds totally reasonable under the circumstances.
