Are the bangor halls on campus?

I am putting Bangor on my application, even though I haven't been to the open day :colondollar:

and I just wondered if anyone knows, are the halls of residence on campus, or would I have to get a bus to them if I went there?

Thanks anyone who knows Bangor or went to the Open Day!

There are halls on campus yes :3 The ones on the ffriddoedd site are about a 5 minute walk from the main buildings I think? My best friend is there at the moment and it only seems to take him 5 minutes to get to lectures :smile:

The other halls on the main site are still in walking distance I think though :smile:

Ffridd is about 5 minute walk away from Main Arts, which is where most lectures are held... Wheldon, Chem Tower and Dean Street are a bit further out and down a MASSIVE hill which tbh you can't avoid as the best shops are down there too...

Normal Site is about a 20 minute walk away and is best if you wanna do sports science or primary ed. I live on Normal and do Chemistry and it takes me about 25 minutes to walk into town- the walk isn't that bad, considering I have a bad knee it's okay :smile:

The environment on Normal Site is also SOOO much better :smile:

We have open plan rather than closed-off groups of us, a site society (the JCR) who are a right laugh and we've won pretty much all of the Inter Halls stuff this year :smile:

Sounds great. I've had a conditional offer from Bangor, with grades that are achieveable, so that's really helpful, thanks! :smile:

What course are you planning on doing? :smile:

Economics! :smile:

If you want to be on ffriddoed and not in a flat then reichel is a good option, I'm in there and it's much cheaper than the others and we're all on a corridor and my room is bigger than other people's in other buildings :smile:
