Booking Deposit
A booking deposit of €250 is required to secure your reservation if you are offered a room in the lottery.
- If you receive and accept an offer to study at University of Galway, the booking deposit is held for the duration of your stay and is refundable less any deductions for damage or missing items at the end of your stay.
- If you do not receive an offer from University of Galway, (or you choose not to accept) the booking deposit will be returned less an administration fee of €100, provided that you cancel your reservation by the given deadline and in adherence with our cancellation policy.
Utilities Prepayment
A utilities prepayment must be paid prior to check-in. This is a prepayment against utility consumption. Every month, a statement is issued based on metered consumption, and applied on a pro-rata basis against residents’ prepayments. If the final utility charge is greater than the prepayment, the student is liable for the difference. Any surplus will be refunded.
