How late is too late for York accommodation?

If you firm York and apply by 5pm on 31 July, you are guaranteed an offer of a single-occupancy room in accommodation owned, managed or approved by the University.
All applications are considered and rooms are not allocated on a “first-come, first-served” basis.
So you don't need to rush into making your application as long as you apply by 31 July

We collect and hold all applications until our guarantee deadline date.

From UK A-Level Results Day, we put all firm-choice guaranteed students through our ‘mass allocator’ system. The mass allocator will pick out a student at random. That student will get their first choice if possible. If their first choice is sold out, they get their second choice; if their second choice is unavailable, their third choice; and so on, moving through students until everyone in the batch is assigned a room offer.

•
Not everyone will receive one of their top three accommodation preferences, given the variety of our rooms and that some room types are more popular than others.

With the random application does it take into account if someone requires a particular type of room such as wheelchair accessible or smaller flat due to autism
