University of Bedfordshire Applicants 2012!

Does anyone actuallly live in Lea Halls. would love to have an unbiased view before i accept anything

You'll have all of your bills included though. Water, gas, electricity and internet can add up to quite a bit of money. Getting your own flat with bills included for £500 a month is extremely ambitious in the South East. In certain areas up north it probably wouldn't be a problem at all but it's pretty unrealistic for the South East, particularly when considering the proximity to London. It's all about the location. I know people spending over £200 a week for tiny rooms without en suites in London and in certain parts of London you'd probably be paying even more.

I've been accepted to study psychology and criminology at the university of Bedfordshire, any psychology students feel free add me on Facebook as it would be nice to get to know others before

hey, ive just finished my first year at luton studying psychology, so am happy to help anyone with any questions about anything

I managed to get an offer for Fitzroy/Wenlock, anybody else staying there?

Yup

I'm nervous but excited too, especially cos the halls are so nice!

Same, I upgraded from John Street to Fitzroy, still trying to work out hom I'm going to pay that rent!

I'll pm you my facebook addy

Yeah it's SO expensive! I get the maximum maintenance money (£7,125) for this year and I wouldn't be able to live on what I'd have left after rent lol luckily my dad will be giving me £200 a month though and I think I might get the centenary scholarship which would be AMAZING.

I think fitzroy court is worth the money though because it's better than paying £100 a week to live somewhere you hate. I'd rather live somewhere nice and it's not anywhere near as much as what people pay for accommodation in London. Plus we get 24/7 security, a reception desk and a gym.

Same! I should be getting the maximum, providing student finance stop messing me about! and yeah its woth the extra 140 for my own bathroom, double bed and gym! John Street didnt look that great, on some dark side road -_-

I cant wait to move it!!

You're getting a double bed? I'm only in a standard £126pw fitzroy room

How do you work it out to be £140 more?

Yeah they gave me a deluxe room which is 135pw. In John street my rent was 480pm at fitzroy its 630pm

I'm moving the 21st to Bedford and studying English and Education Studies. I'm verrrryyy nervous. I'm coming all the way from Newcastle aaah!

I'm staying in the Liberty Park Halls, does anyone know what they're like?
