If you're an undergraduate student living in university accommodation at Canterbury you can pay in two ways:

Option 1: Pay in termly instalments

Accommodation fees may be paid in instalments at the beginning of each term. Payment in full for each term is due by the first day of each term. (The payment due dates are in accordance for each term to when you will receive your maintenance loans).

Option 2: Pay the whole year in full

Payment can be made in full at the start of each academic year.

Postgraduate students

Option 1: Pay in quarterly instalments

Accommodation fees may be paid in instalments at the beginning of each quarter, due by:

• First day of the academic year

Option 2: Pay for the whole year in full

Payment can be made in full at the start of each academic year.

Option 1: Set up an Automatic Payment Plan on Epay.

• If the amounts entered do not match your agreement, the payment plan will be cancelled at a later date and the outstanding amount will be due immediately.

Pier Quays accommodation is provided by Unite Students for the University, so your contract is with Unite Students. All accommodation payments should be made to Pier Quays directly and not the University. 

Unite will tell you how you need to pay. You can go to the reception in Pier Quays to ask any queries about your accommodation fees.
