Hello all,
I’ve been following this thread for a while now and just wanted to thank all of the contributors here. This thread’s been great
I’ve been accepted at Cambridge as a master’s student (2 years), and was wondering if anyone could tell me what life is like for postgrads.
How much of the undergraduate college traditions carry over to postgraduates? All this stuff about uncles and aunts and formals, it’s quite confusing to keep track of it all, but then I remember I’m not even an undergrad and wonder how much of it applies.
I also got fished out of the pool into Robinson College today, and was wondering if anyone could enlighten me as to Robinson’s atmosphere and reputation within Cambridge?
So far it seems that Robinsonians are friendly, the food is apparently great, but the college has no money, so is quite pricey. That’s about as much as I’ve gathered from this thread.
How is the location? It seems quite far on google maps, but it’s right next to the university library, so having never visited Cambridge it’s hard to tell
And how is the gym? Any good?
Also, according to their website, rooms are cleaned once a week and besheets changed. That seems quite odd to me, is it done in all colleges??
Apologies for the onslaught of questions!
