After 31st July, if a student wishes to cancel a booking, they will remain liable for the contractual obligations laid out in the Tenancy Agreement, unless proof of one of the following can be supplied:
1.Their UK Visa application has been denied
2. They have failed to obtain the required qualifications to get into their university of choice
3. Extenuating circumstances e.g.: ill-health, family circumstances
Evidence of a) or b) should be supplied to iQ Student Accommodation within 72 hours of receiving official confirmation.
Where the reason for cancellation can’t be proved in line with the above, the student will remain liable for the full contractual rent, unless and until a replacement tenant is found. The student is responsible for finding an eligible replacement tenant, although site staff will assist where possible. If a replacement tenant is found, the student will be released from the contractual obligations laid out in the Tenancy Agreement and any rent money will be refunded. The booking fee will be retained.
Most landlords and letting agents require a UK-based guarantor. Without one, you may be asked to pay your full year's rent upfront. To help students navigate this, we've partnered with Housing Hand, which can provide a recognised certificate of rental guarantee, giving both you and your landlord peace of mind.
It's worth knowing that several of our student halls don't require a UK-based guarantor at all, allowing students to pay rent in convenient instalments instead. To find out which properties qualify and how to get started, reach out to our team. We're happy to guide you through the booking process from start to finish.
Whilst we haven’t actually moved in yet I wanted to say that if the experience of actually living at the Pad is half as good as the amazing admin team in Egham, I am sure my son’s year will be his best year yet. Nothing has been too much trouble for Sharon, Lucy and the team there and it has made me hugely confident that my son will be very happy living there.

Really really nice place to stay if you’re going to RHUL. It is right next door and the place looks great after they’ve refurbed it The team are so lovely. big shout out to Yara and Min for always being there to help me and for accommodating all my requests. I was very worried at the start of the year especially when they announced they will have construction going on during exams but it was done very well. Yara was always there and explained the process to me multiple times and she put my mind at ease about my belongings and what the place looks like now was very worth it. Min was also there to help with anything that went wrong in my room and it’s always been fixed before I could think about it. There’s also a few new people I haven’t had the chance to get to know yet but I’m sure they would be just as amazing Only problems were with hot water sometimes and the security people weren’t always very helpful and there were proboems with wifi sometimes but it still is a lovely place to stay I’m very sad that I won’t be here again as i’d have loved to enjoy the new spaces!
