General Regulations and Guidance

The General Regulations include important information about your obligations if you are living in UCL Accommodation. This is your 'contract' with UCL for the duration of your agreement.

Accommodation Payments

UCL has partnered with Flywire to administer all UCL Accommodation payments. Flywire supports a variety of payment options for each country including online, card payment, e-wallet or bank transfer.

Accepted payment types include: Mastercard, Visa, AmEx, Alipay, UnionPay, Pix, PayPal, JCB, Trustly, ICICI Bank, Boleto, HDFC Bank and Diners Club International.

Logos showcasing some of the forms of payment that FlyWire accepts. This includes: Mastercard, Visa, AmEx, Alipay, UnionPay, Pix, PayPal, JCB, Trustly, ICICI Bank, Boleto, HDFC Bank and Diners Club International

In order to secure your place in UCL Accommodation, you are required to pay a pre-payment of £400 within 7 working days from receiving the offer. The pre-payment will be credited to your accommodation account and will be deducted from your invoice.

How to make your Accomodation Pre-payment

Once you have accepted your offer of accommodation, you will need to make a pre-payment to reserve your booking. 

To make your pre-payment:

If you have accepted your offer and your licence agreement you will be directed to make your pre-payment via the Flywire portal. If you have not accepted your offer, you will be guided through the process first..

How to pay your Accommodation Fees

You are required to pay for your Accommodation Fees through Flywire’s payment portal, which is accessible through Portico.

To view your UCL Accommodation account

  • Log on to Portico
  • Go to the My Money tab
  • Click on Student Statements
  • Click on View Full Statement for Your Accommodation Balance

You will be able to see your balance and all your transactions and download invoices and receipts. You can also make a payment via the variety of methods supported by Flywire, including card payments and bank transfers. 

To pay an outstanding amount on an invoice or charge

  • Log on to Portico
  • Click on Make an Accommodation Payment
  • Choose the invoice(s) and amounts to pay
  • Click on Click Here to Pay and follow the instructions on the Flywire portal

Watch a video on how to make a payment with Flywire

If you no longer have access to Portico or wish to pay your accommodation fees for the full year in advance of invoicing, please email the Accommodation Finance Team for instructions on how to make your payment.

If you want to leave your Hall before your contract end date 

You are required to submit a Notice to Quit (NTQ) request via the UCL Accommodation Portal to notify us of the earlier check out date.

If a replacement student is found to take over your room, your liability will end from the check-in date of the replacement student and you will receive a refund accordingly. The full terms of your licence agreement can be found in the General Regulations.

If no replacement student is found, your liability will continue until your contract end date. 

If you cannot pay your accommodation fees before the invoice due date

It is possible to request an extension to the payment deadline stated on your accommodation invoice. You must do so before the payment deadline.

The UCL Accommodation Team may allow you to defer your payment for up to 30 days, as long as it is no later than 2 weeks before the last day of term. Please note you will be expected to explain why you cannot make the original payment deadline.

To request an extension to your invoice deadline, please:

Setting up an instalment plan
It is possible to set up an instalment plan, i.e. monthly payments, to pay your invoice. You must do so before the payment deadline. The first instalment date should be the original due date. The final instalment payment date must be no later than two weeks before the last day of term.

To request an instalment plan

Couples Accommodation

If both partners are UCL students, both partners will be individually invoiced for half the accommodation rate each.

Where one partner is not a UCL student, the UCL student will be invoiced for the entire accommodation and the invoice will be split into two parts, for each half of the flat, for each term.

On Portico you can view your accommodation account balance and the full statement of your accommodation transactions. You can also download invoices and make payments.

How to check if your UCL Accommodation Account is in credit

You can check to see if you have a credit balance on your accommodation account:

  • Log into Portico
  • Go to the MyMoney tab
  • Click on Student Statements to view Your Accommodation Balance
  • A negative balance indicates that you are owed money by UCL accommodation

If you have left UCL accommodation
If there is a credit on your accommodation account, you will automatically receive a refund. We aim to return any credit balance left within 28 days from the end of your accommodation contract.

If you are still in UCL accommodation
We suggest that you leave the credit on your account to offset against future invoices or charges. However, if you need the money returned right away, please request a refund. 

Requesting a refund
If your Accommodation account is in credit, and there are no outstanding invoices or debts on your account, you have the option to apply for a refund.

  • Log into Portico
  • Click on MyMoney
  • Click on Accommodation Fees Refund Request
  • Follow the instructions to make the request

The Accommodation Team will be notified by email to administer the refund. UCL will return the funds to the original payer using the original payment method, where possible. Refunds can take up to 28 days to be fully processed.

If you no longer have access to Portico, you can email the Accommodation Finance Team to request a refund.

Late payment fee

A £25 late payment fee will be added to the account for each term that payment is not made by the due date. 

If your accommodation fees remain unpaid by the due date and if you have made no formal repayment arrangement, UCL will pass all outstanding and future debts to an external debt collection agency, which may result in legal action through the Courts and a County Court Judgment made against you.

In addition the University reserves the right to issue a 28 day ‘Notice to Quit’ to expire at the end of the invoice period, at which point you will be required to leave your room.
