If you’re a new student joining Aberystwyth University in September 2025 through Clearing, please follow the steps below to apply for accommodation.

We guarantee accommodation for all students, and while we will do our best to match your preferences, some options may have limited availability at this stage of the admissions cycle.

If needed, you’ll have the opportunity to apply for a transfer to a different accommodation option in October. Transfers are allocated on a first come, first served basis, and full details will be sent to you by email closer to the time.

If you have any questions please check our FAQs for more information.
