    I moved your first two posts into the accommodation thread. Please don't continue to make new threads for this, for two main reasons:

    1. It is very very unlikely that anyone will be willing to swap out of Bill Mo, it's about the most popular hall there is.

    2. You can't simply agree a swap between two students, all requests to change to different halls go through the Accommodation Centre, so this won't work anyway.

    Have you filled out the swap form on the accommodation website? I did that and they swapped my room to William Morris.

    I filled out the form this afternoon, how long after you filled out the form did it take them before they got back to you? And just out of curiosity what did you swap from?

    They phoned me the day after I completed the form, and I changed from the Holt to another ensuite self-catered room. They said I was pretty fortunate to get it, I honestly was not expecting them to call me. I hope they can change your room for you too
