Ahh ok. I chose Oak House, Richmond park, and Oak House (sink) in that order. Soooooo hoping for Oak House, but now judging on what you've been saying I'm getting worried =[ Still waiting to hear from them.

I'll be doing Psychology too btw :smile:

Yeah, I remember! One of the (probably) few guys doing Psychology. :smile:

And about your offer: just because I was really unlucky does not mean, they are going to be ridiculously random when allocating your room! Keep up your hopes :wink:
And I think it is not that bad anyway. I might be able to swap once we all get there. And if I like my room and room mates it will be great, for sure!
That is really weird that you applied for Oak House TWICE and got OP...

Honestly? I lived in Green Court and I didn't enjoy it, but I think it mostly depends on who you live with and how comfortable you are sharing a bathroom. I was unlucky in that the bathroom on our floor flooded and it took them weeks to fix it. I will say though that the catering and the kitchen facilities in GC are an absolute joke, and if you have the money I'd advise you to swap to a self-catered hall once you get there.

The 6 refers to your block. Tower lifts only go to even floored numbers (seriously) and so it's divided into 7 blocks of 2 floors and one of 3 floors (at the top). So you're on the 13th floor and part of T6, which is the 12 and 13th floor which are kind of connected to each other. Difficult to explain, but a word of advice, when you move in go to the 12th floor and walk UP the stairs- not the 14th floor and go down. Just trust me on this.

You're in F block, Tree Court. On the right as you approach the gate, I think you have your own entrance, seeing as you're next to the gate - it's a fire escape on your left hand side; very obvious. Keep your window closed when you go out, and you might want some aer plugs - people coming through Tower Court (eg more or less everyone in Fallowfield) and Tree Court will have to go by your window, and slam the gate really loudly. Brilliant at 3am, I'd guess!

Soooo, got my offer for OP today. I'm T1.02.06, whatever that means!

I wanted an ensuite but nevermind, it's in Fallowfield and I wanted a great social place so I'm happy :yep:

Anyone else coming to OP in September? :biggrin: xxxx

^
O wow what are the odds. Some massive d*ckhead is going to be in your floor.
I remember him mentioning that he is room 11.
Good luck x
