Foundation degree- Uni of Liverpool. Accommodation.

Also, how do we actually apply for the accommodation?

I tried online but how do I find out my ID or pin??? :s

Hey,

Sorry to impose on your conversation.

It sounds like we are all in the same boat. Year at Carmel and Off-site accomidation. (catered was my first option)

I was all set until I looked at all the travel issues.

So here is what I found. ( I am hoping someone points out an error in this!)



Breakfast - 7:30 (catered accommodation)

699 First Bus! - 8:05 for arrival at 8:25

10 Bus - 8:28 for arrival at estimate of 9:13 (45 min journey)

http://www.arrivabus.co.uk/serviceInformation.aspx?id=3680&r=UK

start of college day 9:20am

ps - Based on the assumption that the 10 bus stop is really close to the 699 if not the same stop. I think it is about a 5 min walk, which means the next bus is 12 mins later, making us LATE.


My thought as this being the perfect journey time. So i pretty much doubt it will always be this good!

I feel like it does not leave enough room for error.

Waking up late, more traffic than normal, ques for breakfast?

Previous students have said on a bad day it can take up to 90mins!

so now im really not sure about what accommodation I would want to go into. I do not like the look of the on campus accommodation

Whats goin on on the 18th?

we are guaranteed halls second year? DEFFO?!!!!

what does the journey entail from the on campus accomodation?

I just came across this thread and i am wondering if anyone could give me any advise for applying for year zero to then going on to doing medicine.
I am starting to look at my options and the year 0 at carmel seems like my best option so any advise would be greatly appreciated

thank you

Have you all applied for accommodation yet?

I sent mine last week my choices are
1. Opal Court
2. Vine Court
3. Greenbank D&R

I emailed the woman at accommodation and she said people with unconditional offers should hear back at the end of May, so not too long to wait

yeee applied for GREENBANK D&R non catered
CARNY DALE catered
GREENBANK D&R catered

I went:

1) Carny Dale - S/Catered
2) D&R - S/Catered Ensuite
3) D&R - S/Catered

I didn't even have a look at Dale, it was a bit of a wild card in the end. Did you see what it's like? Is it true they only have baths?

When do we hear? It'd be nice to find out and start budgeting!

Zak

ARGGHH no i havnt!!!
Dont know whether to go Carny/Greenbank or the on campus halls!? ARGH

i heard the on campus halls is full of international students

but it is closer to liverpool

ARGGGGGGGGGGGH

does anyone know if we can get halls for year 0 then get it for year 1 aswell guaranteed or is it only guaranteed if you dont go to Carny/Grnbnk year 0?!

haha i cant remember to be honest, dale was different to all the others in Carny though apparently thats why i went with it, sounds like we have simalar choices! ill be making the trek to st helens with you next year!


when do we hear about accom?!

ps. i hope they dont only have baths cause im a shower person!!!
