    1) South House
    2) Wavel??

    I only put two choices. At first I thought it was asking me how many rooms I'd like to order :rolleyes:

    I only put two choices down in the hope they'd have to give me one of them

    1. South House
    2. Hector Boece

    Really hoping I get South House cause it looks so much better!

    Seems like everyone has went South House and i thought i was being smart applying at 9am. Damn. Lucky me will most likely be staying in Hector Boece because i was stupid enough to put down 5 choices. Ragin.

    I put
    1-South House
    2-NCC (Can't really afford it but my parents persuaded me I should apply there!)
    3-Hector Boece
    4-Wavell etc
    5- South House ensuite (Which I really don't want!)

    I'm hoping that because I'm unconditional and applied straight away I will get my first choice, its the only one I really want! I wouldn't have put wavell and south house ensuite if I knew I could only do three!!! I'm hoping that South House ensuite will all be taken up with disabled people who will put it as their first choice and get priority over me so hopefully it rules there out!!

    I honestly wouldn't mind Hector Boece seeing as South House and NCC both seem really popular, but please not wavell etc :-/

    Something I noticed, it said on my certificate of acceptance that classes start September 18, but the dates that the accomodations were for stated that we move in at the 15th? What about freshers week???? :confused:

    How soon do you think they will give us our accommodation offer? It said if your offer in unconditional they will get back to you ASAP.

    I wish i only put 2 !! haha, i'm not smart enough for those kind of tactics.

    I wish my parents persuaded me to go there! When i phoned my dad and told him i put it as my 3rd he said i better pray to god i dont get it or he's not paying for it. Poor me haha! But yeah, i think en-suite South House will be for disabled folk so we're alright. Also there's still everyone with conditionals offers etc so i reckon we'll all be alright for our top choices. Second at a push.
