Arrangements for lockdown rent refunds have been confirmed by numerous universities

The government is seeking to reduce the movement of students into and across the country to minimise transmission risks.
Current coronavirus advice is that students should not return to university campuses until at least February.

Students in catered accommodation will receive a refund for the catering element of their accommodation fees for the period 9-18 December 2020 as well as the full rent refund.
