Thanks, Eddy

Lakeside is also my first choice and most of the Postgraduate students are Chinese and for cliquey, it really depends

The question I meant to ask was whether there was a half decent chance to get an off campus room close to campus at Christmas. I have applied for JM, Lakeside et al which are meant to be less noisy but I don't accept the proposition that noise is primarily dependent upon which building you occupy. I'm inclined to believe that it's all about the half dozen people around you. It only takes one person to spoil it for everyone.
So it would be good to know whether each of us is stuck with the allocated room for the entire year. I have been boarding for a few years and my experience has been that it's all about the individuals you live with.

Does anyone know when they send out accommodation offers?


Posted from TSR Mobile

Most of the off-campus accommodations have been allocated since lots of friends of mine have received their accommodation offers.

Is it possible that your friends opted for a quite area and/or single sex area?

They have no idea who their roommates are

They might have selected those options for getting a quite area, just asking if they did that, maybe thats why they were allocated early.

Hey,
Are there separate toilets for females and males in the accommodation (Rootes)

Could someone explain to me what the 'quiet area' actually is because I said yes to it and I'm now thinking I might regret it. Does saying yes to the quiet area mean that everyone who uses your kitchen is going to be a hermit (slight exaggeration) or does it just mean that you will be placed near other rooms in the corridor that prefer it a bit quieter when revising or trying to fall asleep?

I am asking this because I often like it quieter but I am also a sociable person who would like to go out for freshers week etc.

I did exactly the same thing and now I am also worried that I will be in accommodation with people who never want to go out...
