    And beyond that, past being one of the standard freshers week questions (when people want to keep the conversation going and no-one knows what else to ask) no-one gives a toss where you went to school.

    I'll look forward to there maybe being a pole in my room... Do guys have to wear light coloured/white shirts or are any plain ones fine?
    I think that boys are allowed whatever they want as long as a tie is involved. Garish patterns would probably not be recommended though.

    Ah ok, thanks. Fortunately I don't own any garish patterns yet. Are there fancy dress shops close of TH? Having looked at the list of vivas coming up I think I'm gonna need one.

    There is a joke shop near Magdalene that might sell fancy dress items. You don't need to spend a lot of money on costumes though, ebay can we good if you want to buy a random item that you might not need again.

    I'm applying to Tit Hall for Economics. Good luck to everyone applying (which includes myself)

    I know this is a very inactive thread, but I still would like to ask a question.
    I come from Canada, and from my teacher, I learned that Cambridge isn't quite accessible to international students. Is this true?

    I wouldn't say so, there's plenty of international students in college, and one guy in the first year is from Canada. For obvious reasons, you're going to find more British people here than any other nationality, but if you've got the ability, you won't loose out just because you're an international.

    Now I have researched more about Trinity Hall, I feel that my previous question is quite silly.
