The ‘Condition Report’ is a very important document, as it can be used as evidence if there is a dispute about who should pay for cleaning, damage, or replacement of missing items, particularly at the end of a tenancy. You may want to take photos of your apartment at the start of your tenancy to further show the condition.

The Confirming Fee must be paid when you accept our offer of a place at St Catherine’s College and is not a payment towards your weekly fees.
