Checklist when you move in

Moving into halls of residence when you first start university is an exciting experience! Arriving unprepared, on the other hand, can be stressful.

When you arrive to your Coventry University accommodation, here are some helpful tips to keep in mind: 

Complete your inventory

Once a room offer has been made you will receive an email from ‘Inventory HIVE’ 5 days prior to start of the accommodation contract. It is important you record and submit any defects you may find in your room when you arrive, please ensure you complete the online inventory as soon as you arrive into your room as you have limited time to submit this. If you have any queries you can speak to the accommodation reception team or contact your halls manager.

Set up on the WiFi

Log in to the halls WIFI using your Coventry University ID and password. You can sign-up to our WIFI prior to your arrival using the link that we will email to you.

Confirm your insurance

We've arranged contents insurance for all our students staying with us in our halls of residence at no cost to you. It is important that you confirm your cover to ensure you understand what is and isn't covered: https://www.endsleigh.co.uk/student/student-insurance/

Download the Wayfinder app

This app will help you find your way around campus. It's full of lots of useful links and information to get you started. Ask the accommodation team for guidance upon arrival.

Get your student ID card

Once you have enrolled, follow the instructions on Wayfinder to get your student ID card (please select your location on the app from the pane on right).
