Summer Accommodation

Need somewhere to live during the summer (June - September)? If you will be a registered student at Aberystwyth University then look no further as we provide Aberystwyth University (AU) accommodation during this time. So whether you are currently living in halls and want to extend your stay or whether you are currently living in private sector housing then summer accommodation is available for you!

Applications for summer accommodation are due to open on Tuesday 14 April 2026.

If you are currently in University accommodation with us, you will be able to stay in your term time accommodation until we are able to move you to your summer accommodation.  Please also be aware that we may require you to move earlier. 

You must be in Aberystwyth at this time to complete the move. 

The weekly costs include, energy, internet/WiFi, a high level of personal contents insurance, and FREE Sports Centre Platinum Membership for your health and wellbeing.

University summer accommodation is only available for Aberystwyth University (AU) registered students.

 

How to apply

Applications to open on Tuesday 14 April 2026.

To secure accommodation for the summer you will need to:

  1. Login to the Accommodation Portal  via the ABER Student Login button.
  2. Select 'Book Summer Accommodation'
  3. Follow the instructions where you will need to select your room and requested dates of stay. 

Please note:

  • Applications for summer accommodation will not be considered if you have an outstanding accommodation debt with AU or if you have been served with a ban from AU Residences during your term licence period.
  • Unsuccessful applicants will be given the opportunity to be placed on a waiting list should a vacancy become available.

What are my options if I graduate this year?

You will therefore no longer be a registered student.

If you are not an AU registered student you can try contacting the Conference Office for alternative accommodation. Alternatively, you can check local hotels/B&B's for their availability.

When can I move into summer accommodation?

Are you currently living in University accommodation?

If you wish to stay in your term time accommodation until your summer accommodation is ready, you are able to do this, however, please be advised that this will be charged at the nightly rate of your current term time accommodation.

Further details regarding moving into your summer accommodation will be sent to you by e-mail prior to your move, so therefore please continue to regularly check your AU e-mail account

It is important that you are in Aberystwyth at this time, to transfer over to your summer accommodation.  If you know that you are not going to be in Aberystwyth, then you will need to remove your belongings before you leave.

 

Are you currently living in the Private Sector?

If you are currently living in the private sector, we are unable to offer you summer accommodation prior to the specified dates.  If you do need accommodation prior to these dates, then please contact the Conference Office to check out our Bunkhouse availability.

 

Is there a minimum length of stay?

Minimum length of stay is 3 weeks. 

What if I am also going to be living in AU accommodation for the next academic year? Can I stay until my term-time room is ready for me to move into?

If you have successfully secured University Accommodation for next academic year, then you will be able to remain in your summer accommodation until further instructions are sent from the Accommodation Office Team regarding moving to your term time accommodation.

You will need to be in Aberystwyth ready to move to your term time accommodation. 

Will there be any Inspections during my stay?

Inspections will continue to be carried out throughout the summer with further details being sent to you by the Residences Team. Further information regarding what inspections are, can be found on our webpage.
