yeah, I had considered that too, especially cause I think I'll look for a job to help with my finance... We shall see.
It would be very good to end up in the same hall are you in England at the moment?
I have lived in south west London for 3 years but that was ages ago.

[abdullahmir10]

I'll look for a job too! What kind of job would you want?
No, i am not. I will come in September. You're in Italy right?
I lived in London for a very short time as a child so don't remember much from then, but have visited so many times since then. Love it!

[Lore92]

Yay, I live in a town not too far from Milan. Mmmh I work as a tour guide in a castle at the moment, so I might look for a similar job (tower of london would be awesome haha) but it's more likely I will end up as a shop assistant or waiter somewhere. I don't care, I love to meet new people, make new friends and experiences.

[abdullahmir10]

Let's find a job together once we're in London?

I love to meet new people and relish new experiences. Would be even more fun working with someone you already know beforehand.

[Lore92]

Most Definitely! I think I'll move up there a week or two before college starts, so I'll dedicate those days into a thorough search for a job muahah. And the fact that we speak two (or more) languages should help us, especially in the city centre. Have you received any emails from BBK confirming your application?

[akemikat]

Tower of London would be an epic place to work! My namesake was beheaded there by order of Henry VIII..

Not that I am obsessed with Tudor history :-)

[abdullahmir10]

Yes, speaking any language apart from English would be a big bonus for us two!

Yes, i received a mail from Ms Sarah Whitaker. She sent me a mail which confirmed that she had received my application for accommodation. What about you?

[Lore92]

Yay she emailed me my BBK reference number (which I didn't have) in order to complete the accommodation form and then I got another email confirming that.
Are we officially enrolled then? That was my only doubt, since a part from on UCAS it's written nowhere else that I replied firm to their offer.
I think I'll fly to London to see the halls (on 6th June there is an event run in the evening but I don't know whether it's for applicants or enrolled people)

[abdullahmir10]

Yeah, thats the email i got from her too, confirming that she's got my application.

Nope, we will find out which hall we are enrolled to after the 15th of July (Till then keep your fingers crossed. But i guess, us two having an unconditional offer so early on is a big big advantage since they will only make offers to you if you hold an unconditional offer)

And then we have to accept the offer they make in order to finalise our accommodation and render our application successful!

Sweeeet, do tell me how they are bro, especially Connaught, Garden and International if you get the chance. Is it the open day you're talking about? Taking place at some Royal National Hotel?

[Lore92]

MMh no, it will be run at BBK, dpt of Social studies, philosophy and history I think. But I'm not sure whether we (who hold an unconditional offer and accepted it) have to join the event, because the email said there will be a presentation and a short view of all the types of courses which this department concerns, it sounds like something for whom hasn't accepted the offer yet.

[abdullahmir10]

The welcome orientation for all of those who have accepted their unconditional offers will be on the 24th of September, a week before all classes start. That's for all international and local students. That's the one we have to attend for sure according to the website.

[Lore92]

Ohh ok thanks for the info matey So we'll meet there haha can't wait to start, really. I sent an email to the tower of london admins to see if it's possible to apply for some kind of job. We shall see

[abdullahmir10]

Hey, what's your email address?

Best of luck bro, you'll land that Tower of London job. Of that I am sure

[Lore92]

Are you at school? I mean like last year? Ahaha thanks, hope you're right about that

[abdullahmir10]

Yeah bro, have my exams in June. I'll be a free bird after the 12th of June!

What about you?

[Lore92]

Ah, I finished last year Took a gap year, been to London for a couple of months (took the IELTS exam) and roamed about some countries for sometime... Fortunately I've found a few jobs
