    Hi, is nobody else having problems just registering for the accommodation? I've been trying since 10am yesterday (2nd April) and every time it says 'Registration Unsuccessful'.

    When I've spoke to them I've been told to try on WIednesday, and now they've said Thursday, because she said it's the same for everybody. It's obviously not if a load of people on here are sorting their accom! I really want to get a place in Camberwell Campus as well, because I'll be studying GD at Camberwell. Anyone else having problems?
    I had this problem yesterday, and this morning it worked! I guess they won't start to give accommodation before the problem is solved, so no worries

    I had the same problem a couple of times but the third time it was successful. So I'd suggest just keep trying? Good luck

    I kept having this problem. I didn't get to register until this morning. I managed to ring up and get my student ID yesterday as well haha, bit of a manic day.
    I've applied to;
    Manna Ash
    Bernard Myers
    Will Wyatt

    Hopefully see some of you wherever we all end up (:

    hi, i'm considering the options for accommodation since I have an offer for foundation in csm for next year.
    i'm considering:

    manna ash
    don gratton
    will wyatt

    i really like the idea of manna ash, but I haven't been to a lot of areas in london and my mum used to work near southwark and she says it's not very safe.

    since i'm into sports and such and want to join local clubs, there are trainings that go on at night, which means I will have to be getting home after it gets dark (probably by myself), so I'm wondering if you (or anyone else who might have read this) could give me any advice whether this will be a problem. Thanks!
    Hey!
    Southwark is really big, the part of Southwark that Manna Ash is really safe. It's on the main road, Blackfriars. I think your Mum might be thinking about the Elephant and Castle area? And considering you're going to CSM you'll never go down there anyway.

    The last tube to Southwark is at 12:30am. Waterloo station is also right by Manna Ash, and trains stop there until 1am

    Honestly the Manna Ash area is really nice, every friend that has come to visit me has commented on how nice the area. You're a 5 minute walk from the station, 10 minutes to Waterloo station, the London Eye, South bank, 20 minute walk to Trafalgar Square

    Thanks! that's great to hear. My account isn't working at the moment and i called them and they said they're fixing it by tomorrow but hopefully i'll still get in!!
    Do you know if the other locations eg Don Gratton or Will Wyatt are just as safe?
    Thanks!

    I'm curious why people haven't applied to costume store?
    My choices:

    Costume store
    Manna ash
    opal 4

    It was quite a rush this morning, I was on the website for hours trying to apply but it kept on crashing so I quickly chose my places. I hope these are okay.
    Hey! I applied to the same as you!
    Except the order of mine was
    Manna Ash
    Opal 4
    Costume Store

    I'm doing Fashion Design and Development as LCF.. What are you doing?
    Eeee I'm so excited!!

    Everyone seems to be picking Manna ash, it must be good.
    That sounds interesting, I'm doing Fashion journalism at lcf
    Haha, I'm excited too! it's going to be terrifying at first though.

    Really? couldn't have been that tough if they let me in, haha. I know, hopefully we'll know soon, as long as I get a hall, I'm not too bothered on the actual one. I think I'm just glad to be going, although, come September I know I'm going to be terrified!
