    Apparently campus allocations and confirmation packs are in the post and on the way guys!
    What! When! Who says?

    EDIT: Scratch that, i Just read my emails.

    SOOO EXCITED NOW!

    EDIT 2:

    Can someone help me. i seem to have received the letter attachment regarding Insurance and stuff but no actual student agreement.
    Is that all I'm supposed to have?

    EDIT 3:

    Ok I didn't read the email properly. crisis averted.

    So does anyone know when we will actually receive the campus allocations and things? must be soon if they're already in the post.

    if it doesn't come today, it will be at least Tuesday, probably later because of the holiday backlog.

    The good times roll. And lets face it, if there is tsunami its bye-bye UK. Never mind the south west.

    Plus you got the better deal because year 3-4 or year 5 is far better in Exeter than Year 1 &2.
