psychology at Kent and accommodation

Hey guys just wondering if anyone else here is studying psychology with clinical psychology at Kent.

2. Does anyone know of anywhere around the area where you can get student studio flats.

3. What accommodation did everyone pick? And why. I'm a little lost on what it pick. I picked Elliott collage because of the breakfast but now I'm thinking it might be too small and is bad coz it doesn't have bathroom. Lemme know guys.

4. One more thing sorry. Does anyone know if maintenance loan is payed every term. And of so do u know how much each term.

Thanks guys.

Heya I can't help with the Psychology (I study Politics) but:

- If you mean off campus student studio flats then there's not many in Canterbury - normally they are offered to Postgrad/Mature Students only. However, if you really want to find out more about them I've got a friend who's got herself a 1 person flat.

- For other off-campus accommodation we have an accommodation finder on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/315125411909426/ where students post spare room offers (generally £350-400 per month is the average: I paid £370 per month without bills)

- Good thing about Eliot is that it's cheap. Sharing a bathroom is not bad at all: it's the kitchen that you have to worry about, which you'll have to deal with wherever you end up living. I lived in Parkwood which was great as it had a kitchen though there were days where I could not be bothered to cook. Here's the page for the Eliot Freshers page if you wanna meet with other people who will live there: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1488603064716412/

- Finally yes your loan is paid to you at the beginning of each term. The amount depends on how much you're getting in total, but you get the same amount in September and January, and slightly more in May (e.g. £2,000, £2,000, £2,400) - Minimum amount you can get from student finance is about £3,000, maximum is about £7,000 (don't remember the exact amounts sorry!)

Thank you soo much you really cleared up a lot for me

I'm studying Psychology with Clinical but can't answer any of your questions haha. I picked Parkwood though.

Oh yay guess I've met someone from my classes

Hi, I'm studying Applied psychology with clinical psychology and am staying in Turing

You're the first person I know that's doing it so far!

Gotta make sure I remember your face for when we start.

I'll have to go upto people and say 'Kisses'? Haha

That'll make it easier! Did you get your accommodation offer?

I'm also doing Psychology with Clinical Psychology!
