    I put early rise and late to bed lol I rarely go to bed early, and rarely get more than 7hours sleep. So that suited me better than the other options.
    my mum was the one filling it out for me.. cos i was at work -__- but she said she didnt even get to choose it, she said the page just spazzed out on her then said 'your application has been submitted' :eek: and it just put tht option :/ i never go to bed early either eugh.. x :confused:

    I chose Vine Court Self Catered, Prospect Point Self Catered and Greenbank catered, D&R. I know the social aspect of Green bank is better however I find it easy to socialize as it is and will probably make friends with people who are in Carnatic and Green bank so I'd prefer either Vine or Prospect due to it being in the city, closer to the uni and the rooms being bigger. What did you choose?

    Ahh, i was really excited when i first started reading about the vine court accommodation! but when the prices came out i realised i definitely wouldn't be able to afford it.. I put down Derby&rathbone self-catered ensuite, derby&rathbone self-catered then roscoe&gladstone catered rly hoping i get my 1st or 2nd choice as i didnt really want to go catered.. but didnt rly fancy putting one of the on campus ones down :rolleyes: x

    I know, it's so expensive, but tbh I would definitely prefer to pay more if I end up being more comfortable and in a nicer room/flat. A lot of the accommodation especially the on-campus choices are too small for my liking, I prefer to have room to spread out lol I know what you mean, I would definitely prefer self-catered hence my options

    I'm sure you will Not sure, a mate going to Leeds this year has an unconditional and said no longer than 1 month, as we have already met our offers. Depends on the amount of unconditional applicants I guess lol I wouldn't think it would be more than 1 month, it might be longer for me as I have applied for Vine.

    Because it's still being built and they probably have additional measures when it comes to allocating rooms at the moment, although I could be wrong :P Did you go to the Open Day/ Accommodation open day? x

    Edit: I'll PM you instead, instead of filling up this thread lol
