The price you pay may depend on one or more of these factors*:

• whether or not food is included 
• room size and layout compared with other rooms in the hall (sizes and layouts in purpose built halls are less varied, so prices are more similar, too)
• room location within the building
• available natural light
• whether the bathroom is en suite or shared
• how close the room is to shared facilities (such as bathrooms or kitchens)
• bed size

*The most expensive room in a hall may not include all of these factors. In Lilian Knowles House, the price of the room is mainly contingent on .

Deposit amounts

The deposit you need to pay depends on your hall and your room type. 

• ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ halls and Sidney Webb House: £250 for single rooms and £500 for some couple or double rooms 
• Urbanest: equal to one week’s rent for the room you have booked 
• University of London halls: £500 
• Lilian Knowles House: £400 

Accommodation deposit refunds

Your accommodation deposit consists of a holding deposit and a security deposit. 

Your holding deposit 'holds' your booking. It will be deducted from your first term's rent. 

Your security deposit will be kept until after you move out. It helps cover the cost should we need to make any repairs, replace missing items or carry out a deep clean. If your room is in the same condition as stated in your inventory (give or take some usual wear and tear) and you have no outstanding fees due to the School, we will refund your security deposit in full as soon as we reasonably can.

The split depends on the total deposit you've paid. For example: 

• if you have paid £250, £110 is the holding deposit and £140 the security deposit
• if you have paid £500 (for a double room), £210 is the holding deposit and £290 the security deposit 

For third-party halls, the deposit refund process may be different, please contact your provider directly for information.

Different refund and cancellation policies apply to different types of accommodation. 

• For term-time accommodation cancellation information visit: Book accommodation in halls. 
• If you already live in halls during term-time and would like to move out, visit Moving out early. 
• For ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ summer vacation accommodation cancellation information booked through the ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳ Student Accommodation system visit: Summer accommodation next steps and refund policy.
