Hi there, I was wondering if someone could give me some advice about my Uni accommodation choices?
Essentially, I would like to be in halls as I understand they're the best place to be for social life. However, I don't have an infinite budget so some of the more expensive halls are out my range.
I thought about putting University Hall 1st choice (it was apparently undersubscribed last year), but this leaves me with not very many options for my 2nd choice if I wanted halls.
Alternatively I could put Manor Hall 1st and University Hall 2nd, but in this order both of them were oversubscribed last year (MH had lots of 1st pref, UH lots of 2nd).
So basically I was wondering if it would be better to choose UH as 1st but risk not putting another hall down in my preferences, or hedge my bets and put MH 1st with UH 2nd, with a chance that I won't get either since they're over subscribed?
Or alternatively am I just massively over-thinking things? :')
Thanks for any advice you can give!
