Owens Park Offers 2011-2012

Scroll to see replies

I just got an offer for Owens Park, I put Oak House as my first choice, Richmond as my second and Bowden Court as my third so i didnt get any of my choices so im pretty gutted especially as all the ones i applied for are self catered and owens park is catered. If any one is looking to swap PM me :smile:

What was your first choice? If you email the accomodation office they give you the option to appeal - it takes a week, i'm looking to hear back from them on Monday, but its pretty unlikely they will be able to move me now at this stage apparently :frown:

On the off chance you're interested, i've got a room at Victoria Hall that I really dont want haha.

Have you still got a room in Victoria Hall? Im in Owens Park. PM me if you want to swap?

I'm in Owens Park, Tree Court B, Floor 2, Flat 11. Not what I wanted but might as well make the best of it :smile:

Anyone nearby want to talk a bit before we all move in?

I just got an offer for Owens Park. Wasn't any of my 3 choices as i am all for self catered but what will be will be. Sounds like the centre of all student shenanigans anyway.

Haa ... This is why I'm still umming and ahhing about whether or not to get somewhere else or just accept that I'm going to be slumming it in owen's park for the next year :L - oh and I think I'm in the 'dreaded tower' lol

I'm going to study adult nursing so I kinda don't want to be woken up at 4am before a 12 hour shift after my placements start :s-smilie:

I was going to ring up the accommodation office tomorrow but like you've said it's very late on now - i wanted woolton hall myself as well

wow i'm going for adult nursing and am in little court! i was worried about it being catered because of the early shifts and late shifts! i'm glad theres someone else with me on this one hahah! x

There's a list on the OP website as well as on TSR.

Plus catered's better because you dont have to worry about food during the week and you get to meet alot more people rather than just being stuck with the people in your flat in self-catered.

Student accom is always going to be crappy but I picked OP because of the atmosphere not because the walls were a nice shade of beige.

Hi, I'm in TA.02.03 which what I've gathered from this thread is Tree Court. When is everyone thinking about moving into the accommodation, on the 15th?
