During your placement year

If your placement requires you to move away you may need to think about accommodation, your employer may be able to give you advice on the local area, organisations who take a large number of students may be able to facilitate house share opportunities through contact groups or induction events. 

Council tax exemption

If you require a letter to prove your exemption from Council Tax, please contact the placements team who will advise you on how to obtain this. Placements@kent.ac.uk 

Returning from your placement year

When you return to University after your placement you will also need to think about where you are going to live.  When you start your placement we will ask if you would like your contact details shared with other students on placement. this will create a community of your peers whom you could reach out to while on placement and prior to your return and enable you to arrange potential house shares for your final year.
