    I know I'm a bit late here, but hello!:hi:

    I firmed Southampton for medicine, 5-year course. I'm an international student from Canada.
    It was amazing how friendly everyone was during my interview - can't wait to start school!

    Nice to meet you all
    Any other international medics?

    I originally applied to do Sociology at my 3 closest Unis (Leicester, De Montfort, Loughborough) in 2013. But a drastic change means I have just sent off to do Magazine Journalism and Feature Writing at Southampton Solent this year The requirements seem high but I'm hoping I get an offer with attainable requirements as the course and accomodation both seem great.

    Hey guys
    I received my conditional offer for CompSci a couple of months ago )
    I've also got an offer for a CompSci course in Warwick and I'm in a doubt about which one of them to choose. Any suggestions?
    I have a kind of a gut feeling about Southampton and also I've heard the climate there is better than the one in Warwick(I'm from Bulgaria and the weather in the UK bothers me )

    Cheers :P

    Re: Southampton 2012 Applicant's Thread
    Hi, Need some help pleaseeeee.

    I am in the process of applying for accomodation and would like to know something about the bathroom facilities.


    I understand if you go for a normal room, you share between 8-20 people. (From what I have seen, the bathrooms normally have around 2/3 showers, so if there was 12 people for example and 3 showers, the ratio would be 4 people to a shower).

    Therefore if I apply for enchanced room, does this mean it will be 8 or less people per bathroom, (i.e. 7 people for example sharing 2/3 showers?????)



    Reason I am asking is because someone told me he has an enhanced room and shares 1 shower with 7 people which tbh is worse than a normal room then.

    PLEASE REPLY ASAP. Thanks

    Well someone knows what is our student ID for accommodation ? I tried the one on my offer letter but it's not working :s (So i tried the one on my student ID from kent and same result ...)
    This happened to me, so I rung them and turns out they'd sent me the wrong number, but its easily sorted out!
