    Any thoughts on Accommodation choices..??
    I'm thinking Clive Booth en-suite and Paul Kent en-suite.

    I'm gonna be based on Wheatley for lectures so I know Westminster is out of the question LOL.

    Anyone from London, moving to Oxford??
    i was looking at those two too, they seem pretty decent.
    and i'm also moving to Oxford from London.

    Dorset house is so expensive and you will have to pay for additional extras such as internet. Dorset house is not ran or applied through the university. It is a private company and so you will find you wont be living with that many freshers as they will all be in the brookes halls.

    Media, Communications & Culture/Psychology.

    I haven't checked all the halls yet. I may go for Westminster as my first, but it's non-smoking.

    (I could always give up)

    I've also firmed OB for Communication, Media & Culture/Psychology... so glad to finally find someone else doing both!
