You will be accepting liability for the full tenancy length of 39 weeks. Once you have moved in you are liable to pay for the duration of your licence period.
Your first payment is due prior to arrival and should be paid via the NottinghamHub (University of Nottingham Student Hub). Undergraduate students who are reliant on a Student Finance England maintenance loan to pay their accommodation fees will be able to make a minimum payment of £250 payment. The £250 minimum payment will then be deducted from your first period instalment with the balance due on 12 September 2024 with the remaining balance to be paid on 7 October 2024
Student maintenance loans and grants are paid to you directly by the Student Loans Company into your bank account (as per the details you have provided them).

Further details on how to pay your accommodation fees for term one can be found on the finance website. Please also see their alternative methods of payment if required.
