<\/strong>Yes. You can cancel your Reservation Agreement by completing the cancellation form. A three-day cooling-off period applies from the earlier of the date you accepted the Reservation Agreement or paid the Holding Payment.

<\/strong>Yes, visa refusal is one of the eligible cancellation criteria. You must complete the cancellation form and provide sufficient evidence, such as official documentation from the relevant visa authority or embassy.<\/p>

<\/p>
What happens if I want to cancel but don't meet the cancellation criteria?

<\/p>
Can I find someone to take over my tenancy?
<\/strong>Yes. If you do not meet the cancellation criteria, you may find a suitable replacement tenant and request Student Roost\u2019s approval by completing the replacement tenant form. A \u00a350 non-refundable tenancy takeover fee applies. This option is available until 31 May 2027. From 1 June 2027, an occupation takeover is not possible.<\/p>
<\/p>
When will I be released from my tenancy if my cancellation is approved?
<\/strong>If your eligible cancellation request is approved before your tenancy starts and you have not checked in, you will be released from your obligations from the tenancy start date, provided sufficient evidence is submitted within four weeks of your cancellation request. If your request is approved after the tenancy starts, you remain liable for rent until four weeks after sufficient evidence has been provided.<\/p>
