International students in accommodation - key responsibilities 

Below are key responsibilities for international students, studying on our General English course, to adhere to during their stay in CCCU accommodation. The policies linked above still apply.

Keeping it clean

It is in everyone’s interests to maintain a clean, hygienic and safe environment. All residents are responsible for the cleanliness of their own bedrooms and ensuite rooms.

It is the responsibility of all residents in the flat/house to keep the kitchen clean, making sure that it’s clear of washing up and food waste. All rubbish, both recycling and landfill, must be taken to outside bins daily (before they overflow). Cleaning the kitchen also includes making sure that the grill pan, oven and microwave are clean regularly and that the fridge freezer is kept clean and free of ice.

Members of our Housekeeping team will regularly inspect kitchens, shared bathrooms and communal areas (internal and external) to ensure that they are kept to a good and clean standard. We provide a cleaning rota so that all residents are aware of what is expected. 

Laundry

All of our accommodation includes laundry facilities with either wash-station or circuit, either in the kitchen or in a card-operated laundry facility nearby. Some sites have access to an App that you can download, to help make doing the laundry less arduous. Within our studio flats we have free standing washing machines.

As a student of the University, you are responsible for the payment of your tuition fees for each year of your course, regardless of how you are funding and paying for your tuition fees. If you’ve entered into a licence or tenancy agreement to stay in University accommodation or a Homestay arrangement, you are also responsible for the payment of your accommodation fees under the terms of your agreement.

If you decide to take a break from your studies or leave the University early, it is likely that you will still need to pay some, or all, of your tuition and accommodation fees. For further information, please view our changes to study page and for further advice please contact a Student Support and Wellbeing Adviser.
