Please give reasons why you need to stay up after the end of term for recommended reading (continue over the page if necessary).

In certain circumstances you may be eligible for a reduction in room rent for this period but only if you can satisfy your tutor that this is work that cannot be undertaken at home. This reduction in rent will not apply to undergraduates with tenancies unless the period of vacation residence exceeds the length of the lease.

Please note that you must make a separate application to the Domestic Bursar for vacation residence.
