Simple Reservation Process
To book student accommodation Gloucester at Upper Quay House, you’ll need to pay a £100 reservation fee to secure your preferred room. This guarantees your place in our student halls in Gloucester while you arrange your finances for the upcoming academic year.
Flexible Payment Options
We understand student finances, which is why Athena Hall offers two convenient payment methods for your Gloucester student housing:
- Pay in Full: Complete your payment upfront and enjoy peace of mind knowing your accommodation costs are settled. This option often appeals to international students or those preferring to handle expenses early.
- Student Finance Instalments: Our instalment plan aligns perfectly with student finance payment schedules, making budgeting easier throughout the academic year. These payments spread your accommodation costs, helping you manage your university expenses effectively.
UK Guarantor Requirements
For students choosing the instalment payment option, a UK-based guarantor is required. This standard practice for student accommodation provides security for both parties.
Don’t have a UK guarantor? No problem. Upper Quay House partners with Your Guarantor, a professional guarantor service that acts on your behalf, ensuring international and UK students alike can access our flexible payment plans.
