The main accommodation office is<br />
situated in the <strong>Student</strong>s Union<br />
Building, (Block 14 on the Moylish<br />
campus), with service provision also<br />
available in LSAD and Tipperary.<br />
The accommodation office is open<br />
all year round Monday to Friday, and<br />
the Accommodation Service staff will<br />
help students to organise their own<br />
accommodation when applicable.<br />
The service is based on:-<br />
1. A Referral Basis:<br />
Whereby students receive a list of<br />
properties, from which the required<br />
housing is selected at the discretion<br />
of the student involved. All the<br />
listings are accessed via our website:<br />
www.lit.ie/Accommodation<br />
2. Personal Inspection:<br />
Whereby each student is responsible<br />
for inspecting his/her<br />
accommodation and for dealing<br />
directly with the landlord should<br />
there be any problems related to the<br />
property.<br />

Accommodation Safety<br />
• Do not leave personal property<br />
exposed.<br />
• Always lock doors and windows<br />
before leaving the property.<br />
• If a caller to the door claims to be<br />
an official, ask for proof of identity.<br />
• If you lose your accommodation<br />
door keys, make sure the locks are<br />
changed.<br />
• Never hide keys outside the house.<br />
• Ask the property owner to install an<br />
outside light above the front door<br />
so that you can see callers clearly<br />
after dark.<br />
• Do not smoke in bed.<br />
• Please ask the landlord to provide<br />
smoke alarms.
