Types of contracts, halls and rooms (original) (raw)
Depending on your contract, your accommodation runs term-time only or also includes some of the vacations. Different contract lengths suit different preferences and budgets. Some halls offer more than one contract length option.
31-week contracts
31 week contracts don't include accommodation during the Winter, Spring or summer breaks. Great if you're planning to go home or travel during the breaks and don't want to pay for something you're not going to use. You'll need to be able to remove all your belongings from the room (normally by 10am on the move out day).
