The university will not charge rent for students unable to use rooms at its University Locks accommodation for the duration of the current period of lockdown.
Students who have already returned to their rooms or remained in the halls over Christmas will be given a discount of £50 per week to cover the period of restrictions.
The changes are being introduced for the initial period of lockdown announced by the government, but will be extended to cover any extension to the current restrictions.
