Liberty Court Keele Uni 2015/12016

Hi

Liberty court is about 40 minutes away from campus I haven't been there myself but apparently it's very nice. You'll get a double bed and a spacious room and en suite. There's a Facebook group with students who've lived there which you could join and they could answer any of your questions https://www.facebook.com/groups/1478022785844100/

I'd also recommend joining the Keele Facebook freshers page if you haven't already

OMG ive got a place for pharmacy, im gonna start this year. What were your thoughts on the first year? and making friends, the atmosphere, etc?

I've got liberty court too, kind of annoyed as I really wanted to be on campus! I can't seem to find any info about how far exactly it is from campus, has anyone else? But I did notice that we get a free bus pass so it won't cost us any more which is good I suppose. I tried ringing up accommodation to see if I could change to on-campus and the person said to email them, maybe you could try that if wanted

Thank you! Did you live on campus for first year? As excited as I am for Liberty court now ( the worry has gone :P) I feel like I'm going to miss out on a lot on campus!

Yes, I've lived on campus for two years now and will be in September as well Aw don't worry you may have to do some extra travelling but you will still have a lot of fun. I have a number of friends who live off campus and we still get together a lot. Not as much or as weird times of the night as my friends on campus but we put in the effort to make sure they're included. Plus you'll have your liberty court neighbours and I'm sure liberty is it's own small community that you'll feel right at home with

Thank you tons for reassuring me, major panic attacks all day! It's probably pre- move in nerves but I'm sure it'll be all fine and dandy come September
Best of luck with your third year!

I was a tad annoyed too and really worried about not being on campus but I've done tons off research and feel assured! I think I'm going to stick with Liberty Court as there are a lot of perks to it! I have emailed Keele accommodation but apparently if they do find us accommodation there, it won't be the best some of the forums said! Yeh we do get free bus passes for travel and there's also a free bus that runs at night from the uni back to Liberty.

I'm excited now

I just booked my room at Liberty, I'm a lot more comfortable with the idea of it now, I did research too and yes there does seem to be a few perks of being there over being on campus!

Yay! Congratulations!

First year was pretty tough to be honest but if you work hard and get the assignments and revision done on time then it shouldn't be a problem (I had a problem with procrastination haha don't follow my example!) The lecturers are also super helpful if you have any questions at all.

There were some sort of session every weekday so the timetable was quite busy but there is still time to socialise and relax from studies if you manage your time well. I'd recommend printing out your lectures (6 to a page and double sided to save paper) and bring them to class rather than bringing in an empty notebook I found it to be much more helpful as you don't have to write up what's on the slides just the extra notes the lecturers mention.

The atmosphere overall is pretty good the class is about 100 students so you'll have plenty of people to get to know Everyone will be looking to make friends

Hope this helped! anymore questions don't hesitate to ask and I'll try my best to answer them

Thank you so much also i was wondering if you knew the start date of the course? I cant seem to find it anywhere. and also do u know how i could get prepared for the course before i start?

I'm planning on living in Liberty Court for my foundation year then on-campus for my first year. Did you apply through Keele accomodation or directly thought Liberty? I just want to be put with other freshers from Keele too.

My course comes with a foundation year and I've been allocated Liberty Court much to my annoyance. I have a couple of days left to confirm, but when I called them up they said that all en-suits are taken and they don't seem to have any standard rooms on campus left. My only other choice would be to share with another student until a room became vacant and this can be anywhere from a month to 3 months. I don't know what's my best option. I'm more concerned about freshers and getting to and from Liberty court. What do you guys think?

My course is accounting and finance with a foundation course in social sciences
