Updated 28 May 2026

If you are interested in any of the above, please email accommodation@citystgeorges.ac.uk quoting the relevant reference number.

We understand that you may have valid reasons for wanting to leave your accommodation before your contract end date. The Accommodation Team can support you through this process. Please read the information below carefully to understand how the process works and what to expect when you submit a request to end your contract early.

If you have any questions about your request or would like to discuss your situation, please email us at accommodation@citystgeorges.ac.uk in the first instance.

You can also speak with a member of the Accommodation Team by booking an appointment, either in person or online. To book an appointment, please visit the Accommodation information pages on the Student Hub.

Please read carefully before submitting your Early Leaver’s Form.

Step 1: Confirm why you are leaving

A. Withdrawal or suspension

• You need written proof from your Course Officer (email or letter).
• Submit to accomm@citystgeorges.ac.uk or bring a hard copy to the The Student Hub

B. Medical reasons

• Provide evidence from a medical professional explaining why you should leave early
• Evidence is confidential but may be shared internally for assessment.

C. Other reasons

• Requests are assessed case by case.
• You must continue paying rent until a replacement student is found.
• No replacement student can be arranged during the first two weeks of your contract.

Step 2: Finding a replacement student

• You are responsible for finding a replacement student.
• The Accommodation Team will advertise your room on the Current Hall Vacancy webpage after the first two weeks of your contract.
• We will put you in contact with any potential replacement students.
• Once you mutually agree on a transfer date, the formal replacement process will begin.

Important:

• Agreements can sometimes fail; the Accommodation Team cannot take responsibility.
• Demand varies, so a replacement cannot be guaranteed. You may need to continue paying rent until your licence naturally ends.

Step 3: Vacating your room

• Once a replacement completes their booking, you will receive at least 48 hours’ notice to vacate.
• Please make sure your room is completely clear of all personal belongings.
• Any items left behind may delay the replacement process and could result in additional rent charges until the room is ready for the new student.
• Notice may be extended depending on the new student’s start date.
• Do not vacate until advised by the Accommodation Team or hall staff.
• After vacating, your deposit and any extra rent paid will usually be refunded within 28 days.
• If you leave your room before a replacement student is found, you will still be responsible for paying rent.
• The room remains your home, and you are free to return at any time during your contract period.

Step 4: How the Accommodation Team can help

• Complete an Early Leaver’s Form at the Student Hub and notify your Hall Reception separately.
• We can help connect you with students looking for rooms, but it is still your responsibility to find a replacement.
• You can advertise your room on the University of London’s Message Board: http://housing.london.ac.uk/find-accommodation/student-flatsharing-message-board
