Hi there! If you call up Wimbledon they should be able to give it to you :smile:

I actually went through Finddigs and have got my place in Furzedown, less hassle than going through UAL! I'm 19 btw and also going to Wimbledon, see you there :smile:

I had this panic yesterday! I thought they were going to email information but they didn't.. I phoned them up and they gave me my ID number, so then I was able to apply.
I was going to go straight to FindDigs but I think it's £10/£15 a week more?

So yeah, phone them! x :smile:

I'm in Furzedown and I think a lot of Wimbledon people will be there if that helps? Furzedown is also in a residential area and seems to be ok. The Glassyard building is in stockwell, which from what I hear isn't the safest of areas but I suppose that's all down to opinion :smile:

Okay thanks everyone! I'm counting on them sending out emails with ID numbers on because there's definitely nothing on any of my emails so far.

(P.S. Nic - this is a weird question but are you Vicky's boyfriend by any chance?)

I'm starting BPTC at BPP Law School from September 14. BPP recommended that I contact furzedown, and so I did. They didnt need a student ID or anything, just took my word for it :/, even gave me a £25 per week discount. So I booked an ensuite room for a year. I guess you can just contact them directly.

I've put furzedown as my first choice and glassyard as my second as its more convenient with it being closer & cheaper! cant wait! thanks for the advice :smile:

has anyone gone for a shared room at furzedown? i have and wondered if i'll actually end up with a roommate since apparently the shared rooms barely get filled.

Also, has anyone had any confirmation from Wimbledon yet? :smile:

I've applied for Furzedown as my first choice and I intend to study fine art sculpture. I'm coming from a town near Birmingham which is slightly underwhelming haha. I want to find out who else is studying my course as I've only found one other person :smile:

And I'm from Ireland, although I'm hoping not to pick up an accent because I can't imagine what a cross between an Irish/English accent would sound like haha!
