My offer is unconditional. I've checked my e-mail and can't seem to find anything with the necessary information I need. I take it you have already received your e-mail with the username details?

I understand theres still plenty of time but wasn't sure if we were suppose to have received it yet. I was thinking of dropping the help desk an e-mail but thought I would check on here first to see what was what.


Oh that's strange, yeah I received my entrant email in like March...
Search "reigstry-ug" into your email inbox, that's who the email I received was adressed from :smile: Otherwise yeah, sending them a wee email would probably be best :smile: Good luck and hope you find the info you need! X

Your advice on searching for 'Registry ug' was correct and I have managed to locate the e-mail. It was in my inbox after all. I have just activated my account online. Thanks again - much appreciated.

Yes
Full of questions today; does anyone know what the holiday policy is about bringing things home from your room? Do you have to, or can you leave it there until you get back?

Over Christmas and March Break: If you're in self-catered, you and your things can stay. If you're in catered, your belongings can stay, but you have to leave :smile:

Your accommodation will come to your email. Do not worry about not having heard yet, lots of people still haven't. Hopefully they will continue rolling out offers next week. :-) x

Well, I'm not sure how your experience will differ (I think Gannochy has some kitchens and a common room as well?). The smallness can get a bit annoying (everyone knows everything about everyone) but in general it's a pretty friendly hall. Obviously it's gorgeous on the inside and outside (the dining hall looks like a mini-version of Hogwarts) and the location is unparalleled. If you're ever up really early (it's worth doing at least once :wink: ), head down to Castle Sands or the Pier for sunrise :smile: Best part of living in Sallies imo. Also we have the awesomeness which is High Table, which means better food that evening. It's wonderful.

Depending which part of Gannochy you're in, you might be right next to the music hall, in which case I recommend having a pair of earplugs on hand as every once in a while they're a concert/rehearsal well into the night. Only downside of the location is the noise; a few balls/parades are within earshot and they can be very loud very late.

But Sallies is awesome and I'm sure you'll enjoy your time in Gannochy/Sallies
