WELCO
TO WARWICK
ACCOMMODATION
We are delighted that you are
considering Warwick as your
place of study. Most of our
first year students apply to live
on campus, where you’re never
more than a short distance away
from your lectures and all of
our fantastic facilities. Living on
campus is also a great way to
meet new people.
ACCOMMODATION GUARANTEE
We guarantee campus accommodation for
all new full-time first year undergraduates*,
provided that you’ve accepted an offer from
Warwick as your firm choice, and you apply
online for accommodation by the deadline
we confirm after you accept our offer of study.
* Please note that the guarantee does not apply to
candidates for the MBChB, (a graduate entry course), nor to
Degree Apprentices, (residency not on a full-time basis).

OME
We believe that where you live is a really
important part of your experience at
University. We’re here to offer support with
accommodation throughout your whole
journey, from the day you first arrive at
Warwick, to moving to the local area after
your first year.
If you choose Warwick, you’ll have the
opportunity to encounter new experiences
outside the classroom alongside your
academic development. Through living
independently with your fellow students,
you’ll have the chance to participate in
everything our campus has to offer, including
societies, clubs, and social events.
We hope this brochure will give you a
good idea of what we can offer in terms of
accommodation at Warwick and we hope to
welcome you to Warwick in the near future.
