York St John's Accommodation

heyy i am thinking of going ensuite and was wondering if there is much difference between Percy's Lane and Gray's Wharf. What are they like in terms of social and all that? Whats your recommendation thankss

Hi, I am comming to YSJ in september, I am probally not going to go for ensuite so where do you think is better?

If you dont mind sharing a bathroom then I don't see why you'd want to spend the extra £20-60 a week (depending on which en-suite...) just to have your own bathroom. Both the Grange and City are nice, City is a bit more modern than the Grange but only you can decide if you think its worth spending the extra money for a bit more modernity and your own bathroom.
There are some 360 degree tours here of all the accommodations:

I lived at the Grange in first year and it was fine, I never had any problems sharing a bathroom and really enjoyed myself

Thankyou very much for your help . Did you get to choose the Grange, or did you put your preferences and they chose one for you? Also, did you get to choose between a house and a flat?

When you choose your accommodation you put all of the accommodations in order of your preference (so from 1-9 or whatever). If you put the grange as top you're likely to get it. No you don't get to choose between a house or a flat, I was in a house and it was fine though.

Hey, Im a student ambassador at YSJ so can answer any Qs you have about the uni/accommodation.

The info quill come around may/june. As soon as you get it send it off again! As far as I know there isn't a way to sort people no. But you'll definitely meet people who like to go out even if you don't live with them

After you submit the form, do you know if there is a confirmation sent of the form?

Or if you know/remember what happens after the choices of the accommodation have been made?

Is it a short waiting time or is the next step when the place is confirmed on results day?

Thanks

hi, ive just put YSJ as my firm plae for occupational theapy, just wondering the best accommodation to go with?

thanks

Erm, well thats a pretty broad question really. Do you want en-suite?
In terms of your course, you'll be on placement until July for OT, or at least my housemate was last year when she did it, so you may want to consider the uni accommodations with a longer letting period. However there are pros and cons to this... as you can be placed anywhere in Yorkshire so you might not even be in York for placement.

hello, does en-suite go faster than none en-suite? And are physiotherapy students on placement till around the same time as OT students?
