After you move in
Once you have settled into your new accommodation, you need to attend your induction sessions.
Accommodation induction
This is a compulsory session held in the first few days after you arrive, part of your pre-sessional induction timetable.
Kitchen group talks
There are talks held in your kitchen from our accommodation team.
It’s important to attend these as they are specific to your accommodation. You’ll hear what do whilst living here and how to stay safe.
The times for your talk are advertised on your kitchen noticeboard.
Swapping rooms
If you want to swap bedrooms with another student, you must contact the Student Living team on studentliving@bath.ac.uk who can tell you if this is possible. You must not swap rooms without telling us you are doing so.
Staying visitors
One visitor can stay in your accommodation for a maximum of three nights. To arrange this, email studentliving@bath.ac.uk with name of your guest and the dates of their stay.
If you have more than one visitor or they would like to stay longer, they can book into our guest accommodation, available from June to September.
