This award means that for students who choose to live in our on-campus Cwrt Mawr blocks, the cost of housing is fully covered within their tuition fees at no extra cost.<\/p>\n<p>This housing Scholarship is applicable for the duration of the taught element of your studies if you are studying a Bachelors degree, Masters degree or a Foundation course. In some cases PhD students may also be eligible. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We have plenty of availability, however, a room in Cwrt Mawr is not guaranteed, and is allocated on a first-come first-served basis, both for new and returning students. Students must apply for accommodation by the stated deadlines to be eligible for a room. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The University offers a variety of accommodation buildings, but the housing scholarship is applicable only to Cwrt Mawr. All other accommodation options are charged at full price.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Our Cwrt Mawr accommodation is mainly available to international students, though it is not exclusively reserved for them. International students who book Cwrt Mawr can expect to share with mostly other international students.<\/p>\n<p>All on-campus rooms include the cost of utility bills, Wi-Fi, and free Platinum gym membership at the University&rsquo;s Sports Centre.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>All on-campus rooms are single occupancy, meaning you will need to find alternative private accommodation in town if you plan to live in Aberystwyth with family members or other dependants.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you are a current student who started your course before September 2025, you will still qualify for the &pound;2,000 discount for the duration of your course.<\/p>\n<h4>Terms and Conditions<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">BSc Nursing students are not eligible to receive the International Accommodation Award.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The International Accommodation Award is only available for students paying international tuition fees.&nbsp;<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Whilst we will make every effort to accommodate all international students, room allocation is on a first-come, first-served basis and rooms on campus are not guaranteed.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Bachelors students will be able to live in their allocated room for 39 or 40 weeks per year.
