    Has anyone ever lived in the Ninewells recidences? What are they like? I'm doing Adult Nursing this year and don't know whether to apply there or just on campus
    Im doing adult nursing too! I just applied for campus accommodation because there are regular busses to ninewells just outside the campus. Apparently the ninewells accommodation is quite old? I dont know much else about it though.

    Ah right! It's really cool that UoD have such a reputation... Because up where I live, everyone thinks of Dundee as scummy and teases me for wanting to go there xD And no I haven't... I'm hoping for it to come any day now haha! I applied on the 23rd... x
    Yeah, I'm sure every uni will have some bad rumours or what not. Hm, it took about 3 weeks to get my confirmation email though!

    Btw does anyone know if theres bus from west park to Dundee? I read somewhere there was a shuttle bus, but I can't seem to find the page anymore :/

    Firmed it Sunday 22th April, got the accommodation e-mail at the 30th of April, so roughly one week.

    1. Belmont Flats (standard)
    2. Heathfield (standard)
    3. Seabraes
    4. West Park Flats

    Really should read into them more though. What are you going to study?

    What do you mean by 'same here', are you an international student or going to study Psychology - or both?! Yes, I'd also like to be in contact with some people before I go, but I doubt we'll get along well if you drink my apple juice!
