    "We are anticipating that the offers for accommodation will go out in June. Once they go out you will have 10 days in which to accept or decline your offer and pay the £250 damage deposit. After 10 days we will withdraw the offer of accommodation.



    If you do not think you will be able to access your emails at this time we would advise that you ask a friend or family member to check them regularly and accept on your behalf."


    Thats what they sent to me Hope it helps

    Expensive, yes, but its only for one year.

    It next to the uni,...wlel next door which will savel oads of time and effort. + It next to the astro turf and i think that is where football is at.

    Will be easier to socialise with people I think and finally I dont see how it is any worse thna the others?

    Where are you staying?

    I've heard some bad things about it. Remember if yuo want to go into Bristol for nights out you have an expensive taxi to pay for (£20) whereas you get a free bus in the day from the city centre to campus. I'm staying in Nelson hopefully, i want to be close to the city more than anything and on campus looks a bit crappy with no clubs etc.

    Firmed for Property Management and Investment... Gotta get 280 UCAS points (DMM) and these next few weeks are going to be crazy as i am a lazy bastard who didn't crack on with his work. Will definately be there in September though!
    I hope to be in the Student Village, and they have provisionally put me on campus... Sorted!

    £20? The only time I paid anywhere near £20 collectively for a taxi is when there was 7 of us. It's £3 each way normally.
    There is a a fantastic bar on campus + a bar which turns into a "club" at night, which has provided a fair few good nights I must admit. Especially on a Monday lock in:cool:.
    The student village is the nicest accomodation compared to all City Centre accomodation and Carrol Court, because of it's condition.

    Living on campus isn't for everyone, but I would recommend it for many people as I really enjoyed it
