    Haha yep, make that 5 others now, their all either at my school, or local people I know Their all conditions though, some are quite easy, others are quite hard to meet :O. We're all from Glasgow dudette so no need to move into halls. Planning on getting a car instead haha
    Wow :eek:, if we meet our conditions we should all meet up at some point in August, that way it won't seem quite so daunting in September x

    i chose international retail marketing cos it had a lower grade requirement, so hopefully i can do either one of them, although i have no idea what retail marketing will bring to my future LOOL, yup i've applied for it yesterday! have you applied for it? fingers crossed i get an en-suite room, I HATE sharing bathrooms LOL xx

    Yeah I did ^__^ Being 20, my chances of getting into Caley Court were slim so I just went for Buchanan views instead. It looks alright for the most part.

    I'm about 300 miles away but I've seen a few people from Wales and Ireland that will be moving to Glasgow so yeah, I didn't wanna chance getting rejected for Caley Court then not having a place to stay

    I'm staying Psychology with IE. What about you?
