Staff undertake a extensive assessment of each students accommodation application profile in a bid to ensure that "like minded" students are allocated together in multishare environments and the post arrival inspection process provides an opportunity for staff and registered occupants to discuss any issues with room allocation early in the life of the student tenancy alleviating a genuine reason for requesting a room move later in the term.
