    Yes! I was looking at Brian Creamer rooms look really nice and it's relatively cheap and the location is perfect!
    Well done on your offer, too
    Hey thanks! Yeah I thought the rooms look really good, plus it's like a mile's walk to the Strand Campus!

    firming Kings sooon, for biomedical sciences

    im pretty excited, can't wait for uni!
    only thing is that i live within the M25 ring road so i'm low priority for accomodation - i REALLY want to live away from home though

    hm, i haven't really considered private accomodation, is that a better option?
    ah, what to do.. :confused:
    saame, firming for biomed
    but sad times, also live within the M25 ring road.. right on the edge and snap, SO want to move out!

    it's annoying, i really want the whole uni experience from living at halls and all! just hope we do get considered and get somewhere despite having lower priority! :/

    Accommodation 2012-
    Does anyone know anything more about low priority accommodation? eg. Not being guaranteed if you’re inside the m25.
    I'm literally *just* inside it in bucks, so commuting just isn’t going to happen.
    Do they have a sliding scale or am I in the same boat as people living in london?
    same! literally on the edge. i plan to find out more info at the post offer open day!

    after reading about soo many people on here who are also applying for accomodation at Kings despite living within the M25 ring road, I've kind of realised that the chances are really slim - originally I thought I could apply and maybe not many others would apply too so I may get to live in halls but it seems pretty unlikely to be honest

    have you decided on your insurance choice yet by the way?

    I didn't get anything in the post until about a month after I got my offer! When did you get yours? Something is probably on its way

    yeah the chances do look kind of slim.. but what are the chances of the majority of people with offers ALL being within the ring road? :P then only would we have a good chance haha..

    umm still deciding! i wanted st. georges, but i haven't heard from them yet so if i don't get an offer from them, then sussex or queen mary! what about you?

    I'm still waiting to hear from st georges but I've decided that if I haven't heard from them by the time I've been to the Kings post offer open day, then I'm going to have Queen Marys as my insurance
