When you choose accommodation, how specific does it get. I.e. do you have to choose "Westwood Conygre Terrace" or just "Westwood"? Because I'm going to get my sister to do it whilst I'm at school...don't want her to screw it up :tongue:

You'll have the options Marlborough/Solsbury, Woodland, Norwood, Westwood, Eastwood, Polden, John Wood, (+ other city ones, I forget), The Quads. Then within that for some you'll have another choice (Woodland have two difference room prices, one is a bit bigger, Eastwoods have houses with a cleaning service and those without etc.)

Okay thanks. So if I wrote down "Marlborough/solsbury, woodland (enhanced ensuite shower 140), Westwood (enhanced standard with washbasin £115) Norwood." Would that be enough information for her to get it right? Very worried!

Annoying is a bit of an understatement! Most other schools are on easter on the 8th too just mine is stupid!!! :mad:

Going to get sister/mum to do it for me whilst I'm at school. Hopefully they'll get it right.

Plus it's at 10am, don't know why I thought it would be really early like 7am! No frees or anything?

You could always just take the morning off.. :rolleyes:

Yeah, that should be. I'm surprised you'd put Westwood before Norwood and either of them before the Quads. :smile:

I'm free from 11 until 1, so If they've been unsuccessful logging in after an hour at home, I can do it from school. Just wanted to get on bag on 10!

I was thinking about doing that but.....it's really unlike me I have an overly strong issue with missing classes. School forced me to go home once because I was ill. Wanted to stay lol :colondollar:

They're the new accommodation, cheaper than Marl/Sols, because they're a little bit smaller. They have ensuites though, and social spaces, and smaller size flats than Woodland.

I assume you should be able to apply but unfortunately they're not even on the website yet. It would be somewhat of a blind choice.

Okay cool! I've just sent an email to the accommodation office so maybe they'll be able to tell me a bit more. I kinda hope I can apply but they don't put it on the website...so no one else will know :wink:

Hi there!

Firstly, congratulations on getting an offer!

Secondly, don't worry too much about the accommodation application- it's very straightforward from what I remember. Although it is good that you're getting your sister to do it as places do fill up very quickly!

When I was applying for accommodation (two years ago) you just selected your preferences, and Westwood was all included in one option.

I personally was in Conygre in first year and loved it! And had friends in the other set ups, for example Wolfson, and both layouts had their pros and cons so don't stress too much about which particular one you may get.

If you have any further questions about Bath uni or the city itself, please don't hesitate in asking!

Ellen
