University of York, politics 1st year:
When is the best time to apply for accommodation? I don’t want to apply during exam season, so is mid-June still a good time to apply or am I better off applying right now?

Hi,
We don't operate a first come first served system so as long as you apply by 31 July, then you can apply whenever suits you 🙂

How does the York accommodation system work? Does it mean it makes no difference if I apply now or June?

Hi there,
Our accommodation allocations are done through a computer algorithm to make it as fair as possible. We don't operate a first come, first served system, as this would be unfair on students who receive their offer later than others.
You're guaranteed an offer of a single-occupancy room in accommodation owned, managed or approved by the University for the 2025/26 academic year, if you meet the following criteria:
•
You're applying for accommodation for the full 2025/26 academic year
•
You're a new first-year undergraduate (UK or International).
•
You choose York as your firm choice on UCAS, and apply for accommodation by 5pm BST on 31 July 2025.
•
Your offer becomes unconditional following A-Level Results Day on 14 August 2025.
I hope this helps - Hannah 😄
