With these Skylight Properties, some options are more popular than others, so we encourage students to apply early.  Accommodation is usually allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, although applications from those who are new to the area or who pick UCW as their ‘firm’ choice via UCAS will be prioritised.

If you would like to choose one of the Skylight properties as your accommodation choice, please complete this form to reserve your room.  We will then be in touch regarding your next steps.  Skylight will require a deposit to reserve your room, and this will need to be paid ahead of you moving in (usually by the end of August). Those students who withdraw from their course less than two weeks before the start of term will lose their deposit.

Applications for Skylight Property student accommodation are generally processed in the order that they are received. Completing the booking form and providing the deposit early may therefore help an applicant secure their preferred accommodation. Allocation of preferred choices cannot be guaranteed. UCW and Skylight Property also reserve a limited number of places to be allocated at its discretion.

UCW reserves the right to withdraw an offer of accommodation if the applicant fails to meet admission requirements or if a programme is withdrawn

UCW is unable to provide accommodation for students’ partners, their families or other dependents, or for students at associated institutions. However, Skylight Property may be able to help in this situation.

UCW has absolute discretion to make the final decision about which accommodation will be offered to which student.
