Paying your fees

Accommodation fees are payable in three termly instalments. Your fees cover weekends and the Christmas and Easter holidays, though you do not have to stay on campus during these times.

Points to consider

  • You'll sign an accommodation contract for a full academic year and pay for any any periods you may be away, including study tours.
  • The room is yours through the Christmas and Easter breaks.
  • ARU Writtle student’s accommodation is not self-catered. There is a meal plan during teaching weeks only (29 weeks). Meals are not transferable if not taken. If you would like self-catered accommodation you will need to look in the private sector. We can help you with this.
  • You may not have lectures every day, and may be close enough to go home every weekend. If you think you'll only need accommodation Monday-Friday you could consider living in lodgings off campus.
  • Halls are a large community of students of different ages and sexes, and from different cultures and backgrounds.
  • Not all halls have TV aerial sockets in every room; we recommend checking the web pages for individual halls to see what's available. If you decide to bring your own television to campus you'll need to buy a TV licence.
  • All halls of residence are strictly non smoking.
