Accommodation update:
"Guaranteed" first year students - This guarantee of accommodation is open to all those full time undergraduate applicants who live outside Northamptonshire and have made The University of Northampton their firm choice through UCAS. These applicants will also need to have met the appropriate deadline for applying for their course and for halls. The deadline will be included on the accommodation application. Applicants who do not respond before their particular deadline will be treated as “non-guaranteed” applicants.
Application forms for “Guaranteed” students will be sent out via post in six fortnightly batches from mid-May 2010.
"Non-Guaranteed" first year students - Once all “Guaranteed” applicants have been allocated first year students who are not guaranteed accommodation will be allocated. These forms will be sent out via post between May and September.
If there are places remaining in halls once the above have been allocated, then local first year students will be allocated.
