I've firmed for Fine Art :smile:

I don't know whether to get a cheaper room with a shared bathroom or a more expensive en suite? :/

I've never had a problem with a shared bathroom personally :smile:

none of my fine art friends have; many of whom are in my hall or the ones near me

So we start applying for accommodation from around May/June? Because I know a lot of my friends have already applied for their's at other unis?

Will be firming Management Science soon!!!

Yeah I think it's roughly around then off the top of my head. Perhaps April-June is the most accurate window haha but I have no idea exactly!

My friend went Loughborough the year before me and he plays for the Rugby league first team, only 2 freshers in the team, he's had an England call up and so did his team mate. The standard for sport is just so good!

Yeah each sport has like 5 teams! Crazy for me coming from a high school with like 400 people (guys and girls) that can barely put together 1 football team with subs.

I was very keen on athletics up until September where I stopped due to studies. But it's something I'll be picking up again. Lboros facilities and coaching is just too good to not start again!

I'm in a similar situation. I'm supposedly going for just geography. But I want to change to geography with management. I don't know what the process of changing is but I know it is possible.

I think you need to get the grades for the course you want to do (so not just the grades for economics.) but email the application people and ask I'm sure they will be keen to help :smile:

Contact the admissions staff at the department you've applied to and ask if there's any possibility of your offer being switched to the other course. For economics switching to maths with economics that might be a little trickier since you'd be changing the major part of your degree.

I don't know about the maths side, but about 2-3 days ago I asked the admissions tutor if I could change from Accounting and Financial Management to Economics, and my applications was sent to the economics dept and today I got an email saying that he'd given me an offer and I could change. :smile:
