    Accomodation- Insuarance choice?
    Hi, basically I've got University of Kent as my firm choice and Middlesex as my insurance, but if I go to Kent I will be staying at home (so obviously havn't applied for accomodation) and will need accomodation if I go to Middlesex. Do I still need to apply for accomodation for Middlesex?

    Thanks in advance

    Yes. Some universities guarantee accommodation for all new undergrads, including insurance applicants, but some only give accommodation to insurance applicants if they have enough places. Either way, if you want to have a chance of getting accommodation at Middlesex, should you end up going there, then you need to apply for accommodation.

    Yes you should, they won't consider it until results day but it's more likely you'll get a place if you apply earlier as they probably look through them in that order.
