I bowled it up, asked them to take my stitches out, "sorry we can't find you on the system, when did you register?", well I didn't so I filled in some forms and the next day I went in for my "medical" and had my stitches out at the same time. That's about it.
Hello everyone, I'm new to this board. Had a question about computers. I got a letter from the uni saying not to buy a computer unless you have on as they will give you the correct requirements. Does anyone know what these are? Are they subject specific? I'll be studying Architecture, lookin forward to it 
Thankyou for your help. Vinesh

Thankyou for your help. VineshHeya! You're main decision will be deciding on whether you want to buy a Mac or a PC. Once you've decided which one you want, then you don't need to hang about and wait until you're in Portsmouth - just make sure you get a computer with decent specifications. They don't need to be high end, but should be pretty decent. Look at the TSR Architecture Society (TSR ArchSoc - the link is in my sig) thread - there's information about computer specs in there.
The CAD software that you'll need (mainly Vectorworks 11) is pretty expensive though, but it can be "acquired"..
I know this is a really stupid question...and i should know as i was the one that opened the bank accoutn etc....but...:

I think its interest free for a certain amount of time.
An interest-free buffer for NatWest Student Account holders living on a tight budget.
Borrow up to £2,000
We'll agree on the amount that is right for you, and you can apply to increase it at any time during the year.
No charges on your agreed limit
Once you've arranged your overdraft, we won't charge you interest on what you borrow and you won't pay any overdraft fees when you stay within your agreed limit.

Its interest free for as long after you graduate since youve had it...
The nice lady at natwest told me, that as my course should be 3 years, it'll be interest free for 6. But they'll give you more of an overdraft for the next 3 years, and then they'll start lowering it..
I don't know if that made alot of sense, but I hope it mad ea little..
P.S. Don't use your overdraft unless you've gone in to set it up and stuff. I thought mine had been put there automatically, luckily I didn't try and use it, but I had to go in with my UCAS acceptance letter before they'd give me an overdraft!

im trying to steer well clear of my overdraft, i know two guys who worked full time since j une to pay off their overdraft and save enough to survive.
I have firmed my offer fr portsmouth, however, as i have had the past two weeks off school,the school have threatened to withdraw my reference from the uni, as it gives a 'false representation'. in my opininon this is ridiculous, i can't help being ill. but i was just wondering, can they actually do this? and will i loose my place if they do?
also, i recieved a letter from the uni, asking for confirmation of my gcse grades, is this normal?
Thankyou.
