    We can group tenants together so that you can move in with your friends. This is subject to the availability of the
    rooms. Please call us to discuss.
Part-time Students
    Unfortunately we can only accept full time students for the academic year.
There is no deposit (apart from Naburn & Welby Street) To reserve a room all you need to do is pay a pre-rent payment of 1 weeks rent.
Can I Move In Before The Start Date
    Subject to availability yes you can! Just get in touch with our lettings team in Manchester or Leeds.
Can I extend my contract?
    Of course you can. We would love to have you with us longer. If you wish to extend it for the same room please let
    us know a.s.a.p.
Can I shorten my contract, or pull out of my contract?
    No - unless you can find a suitable replacement tenant, as defined by Njoy Student Living. Your contract is legally
    binding and you should make sure that you have read the terms and conditions, understand them, and are happy to
    comply to them - throughout your stay with Njoy Student Living. If you have any other queries please ask us.
What if I can't pay my rent on time?
    It's absolutely necessary for you to contact a member of the team a.s.a.p. should you be unable to pay your rent on
    time. They will help you as much as possible to work out a solution. If you don't pay your rent then your guarantor
    will be liable for the outstanding amount left on your contract.
What will happen if I leave university?
    If you leave university for whatever reason, you must notify us immediately. You will need to find a replacement
    tenant - or you will be responsible for the rent, for the remainder of your contract.
Changes to tenancy
    Should you need to change any details about your tenancy with Njoy Student Living, (ex; changing your guarantor)
    please contact the us a.s.a.p.
Do I have to move out over Christmas/Easter?
    No, you are more than welcome to stay in the accommodation throughout the holidays.
Internet
    Our high speed fibre internet is supplied by ASK4, and is included in your rent.
Do I have to pay council tax?
    As a UK or international student studying a full-time course you are not required to pay council tax. However, in
    order to qualify for non payment, you need to supply Njoy Student Living with a valid student certificate shortly
    after enrolment. Failure to do so may result in you becoming liable for council tax.
Will I be charged for bills?
    All your utility bills are included in the rent.
Terms of Occupancy
    Acceptance of the terms of occupancy (the 'Terms') will create a legally binding contract between you and Njoy
    Student Living. You should read the terms carefully and ensure that you understand what they mean to you. If you do
    not understand any of the Terms, you should take advice on them prior to signing them. Below is a list of some of
    the 'key' Terms.
This list does not contain all of the Terms and reading it should not replace a careful review of the actual Terms.
Post
    Please put your full name and room number, followed by the accommodation address (
NOTE - please don't forget to change your postal address at the end of your contract, as all mail received after you move out, will be returned to sender.
Hot Water and Heating
    Hot water is available 24/7 in all our student accommodation.
Meals
    All residents can cook their own meals within the kitchens provided. Storage is also provided in each kitchen for
    residents to store their belongings, food and beverages. We do not allow residents to bring into the halls large
    bags of rice larger than 1kg, or rice cookers. This is part of our pest control procedure to keep the halls free
    from cockroaches and pests.
Cleaning
    From Mondays to Fridays, communal rooms, stairwells, corridors, kitchens and bathrooms (Manchester only) are cleaned
    at regular intervals. All residents should co-operate fully with the domestic staff. You are responsible for
    cleaning and tidying your own room/flat. For reasons of hygiene and the prevention of illness, it is essential that
    washing up is done promptly and that fridges, cookers and work surfaces are cleaned after use. Although staff are
    employed to clean communal areas including kitchens (Manchester only) it's unrealistic to expect them to maintain
    satisfactory standards on their own. Residents, therefore, must clean up after themselves. It's often a good idea to
    organise a rota of cleaning duties among those sharing a kitchen to ensure that everyone pulls their weight equally.
Laundry
Maintenance
    If you have any issues with your room/flat/communal areas all you need to do is go to: www.njoystudentliving.co.uk/help for
    assistance.
Building Work - Noise & Disruption
    At Njoy we strive to ensure that you have the best possible experience during your time with us. Occasionally this
    means we need to undertake work to improve facilities, or undertake renovation work or repairs. There is often not
    an ideal time to undertake these works (as a significant number of students choose to live here 51 weeks of the
    year).
Given this, you may occasionally hear some background noise during works. However, we are committed to minimising any noise, and unless it is an emergency, maintenance or works will only take place Monday - Friday, within the hours of 8am and 6pm.
Please speak to us if you have accessibility / disability needs, we will do our best to accommodate you, however much of our sites are limited due to the historical nature of the property, please contact one of our lettings team to discuss your needs.
At Carr Mills in Leeds we have 2 rooms with a ground floor flat that cater to the needs of the partially disabled. They are not necessarily appropriate for full-time wheelchair users, so we would kindly invite you to speak with our Lettings team to discuss whether or not these rooms would be suitable for your needs or not. We will do our very best to help.
For our student tenants your accommodation comes with full comprehensive insurance, by Endsleigh. You have the opportunity to increase your cover, plus, through the app, you have access to a 24/7 Wellbeing Helpline!
ASK 4 provide our high-speed fibre internet in Manchester & Leeds.
Wi-fi & ethernet is available in Langdale Hall, Langdale Courtyard and Carfax Court. Wi-fi only in Leeds.
Getting connected is easy, just download the app and follow the info on your A5 flyer, or check out the ASK 4 posters on the communal notice boards.
Accommodation Security
    Njoy Student Living does not hold itself responsible for your personal property during your tenancy at any of our
    accommodation buildings in Manchester & Leeds.
Thefts can occur, usually when doors are left open or unlocked (which may invalidate the insurance policy). In order to prevent trespass and theft, always lock your doors when leaving your room. Get into the habit of doing so even for short absences, such as going to the kitchen or bathroom. Do not wedge doors open. Never let anybody that you do not know personally into your room/accommodation.
Your keys are your responsibility - Ensure you have them with you when you leave your room! Replacement keys will be charged accordingly. Forgetting your keys is not an excuse, and will be treated as requests for a replacement set. No refunds are given if you subsequently recover your previous keys.
Do not lend your keys to anyone or leave them lying around in kitchens or communal areas. Avoid having your name/room number on your key ring in case they are lost or stolen. Please report lost keys to the Caretaker or Maintenance Manager.
Fire Procedures
    Every resident should become familiar with the regulations regarding fire precautions and the procedures to
    be followed in the event of a fire alert.
Safety Equipment
    Langdale Hall, Langdale Courtyard, Carfax Court and Carr Mills are equipped with fire alarms activated by
    panic buttons, heat detectors
    and smoke detectors. Never attempt to cook anything except in a kitchen and make sure that the kitchen door is
    closed when cooking, as the corridor smoke detectors are very sensitive. The fire equipment is provided to save
    lives and misuse is a serious matter and may be a criminal matter. If you tamper with the fire equipment there may
    be a fine per incident. Please ensure that smoke doors are kept closed, including the door to your
    study/bedroom. Do not remove door retaining springs or you will be charged for replacing them, should they go
    missing.
Alarm Tests
    The fire alarm will be tested briefly every Thursday at 12:00 pm in Manchester and
    every Wednesday between 13.00-13.30pm in Leeds. If you hear the alarm at
    any other time you should immediately evacuate the building, attracting the attention of those in adjacent
    study/bedrooms. Leave by the fire exits or the main stairs. Assemble in the car park / grass verge away from the
    building in an
    orderly manner.
General
    If you suspect that someone has not evacuated, inform the property team supervising the evacuation
    immediately. Any fire, however small, must be reported to office as soon as possible, so that damage can be assessed
    and fire safety appliances checked. If in doubt: EVACUATE!
Every resident has a responsibility to understand the fire procedures within the building. It is there for your safety. The Halls are equipped with heat detectors and smoke detectors. Fumes from cooking, smoking, steam, dust and aerosols, can all activate the smoke detectors. It is important to keep kitchen and bedroom doors shut as these are fire doors. Please think about your actions.
If the Fire Service is called when the system activates unnecessarily, it is a serious matter. The Fire Service will then be committed to dealing with a false call and will not be available to deal with real emergencies elsewhere in the area. The fire equipment is provided to save lives. If you misuse or interfere with any of the fire equipment it will result in disciplinary action. You may be expelled and/or charged with a criminal offence.
For your own safety and the safety of others living in Halls, please ensure that all doors are kept closed including any interconnecting doors. It is important to remember that setting off the fire alarm or setting off fire extinguishers, when there is no fire is against the law. *It can result in a fine of up to £2500 or imprisonment*
It’s in everyone’s interests to watch out for uninvited visitors. Salesmen are not permitted in Halls without proof of an appointment, political or religious groups have no right to roam the Halls at will. If you have any doubts about anybody, report your suspicions to Hall reception immediately.
It’s exciting to move into your new student room and we understand that you may have some questions.
Will the room be furnished?
    All of our rooms are furnished with a double/single bed, wardrobe/built in storage, chest of drawers, desk, chair
    and bedside cabinet (space permitting). If you've chosen a flat, you'll also have additional relevant furniture and
    a microwave, toaster and kettle. Please note your room / flat
    does not come with any bedding or accessories, as shown in marketing photographs.
Can I personalise my room?
    If you personalise your room, it is then your responsibility to return the room to us (at the end of your
    tenancy) in the condition it was in, at the beginning of your tenancy. It will be inspected by the caretaker. If you
    should incur any damages during your stay with Njoy Student Living, you will be liable for the cost of repair.
Can I have overnight guests?
    Visitors are allowed for 2 nights per week. A confirmation of details should be provided to staff in case of fire evacuation. Please contact the main offices by telephone or email.
All our accommodation in Manchester & Leeds is not designed for children under 16 years of age. Children must be supervised at all times by a responsible adult. Access to all high-risk areas is by prior arrangement only.
Under the Terms of Occupancy, the Management has a right to refuse entry to any non-resident.
Can I bring a pet?
    Unfortunately we are unable to permit pets within any of our accommodation.
What if I have a TV? Do I have to pay a TV license?
    All our accommodation in Manchester & Leeds do not provide TV licences for any TV’s in any bedrooms in any of the Halls or in the
    kitchens of the Halls. Individual licences are required for TV’s used in any room. Further information can be
    found from the TV Licensing, Bristol BS98 1TL (0300 790 6098). However, there is a communal TV in the open plan living rooms of all the flats in Carr Mills, plus, there's a communal cinema room at Langdale Hall / Langdale Courtyard.
Absence from halls?
    As a responsible adult, you are free to come and go, and you are only required to indicate your absence and
    to co-operate with the safety and security arrangements of the Hall. It may be advisable to advise the Property
    Manager of prolonged absence (overnight or for periods of 24 hours or more) and may provide peace of mind to other
    residents if you have not been seen for a while.
We have a resident's group on Facebook - we encourage all of our students to join this group, plus, don't forget Twitter!
