I also never heard back from kings after both ballots :frown:

I was wondering, how many students are in this situation??
It would be great if we could organise flat shares between those of us who are still interested in shared accommodation :smile:

Is there a group somewhere or should we make one? I had a look at the ULHS website but there isn't much, and other websites aren't exclusive to students which makes it harder.


Yep Facebook kcl flatmate finder. Also the people posting on here we should make our own group on Facebook. It's just an idea

Ok so this is actually ridiculous! ! They are like messing us all around. Unfortunately I think this is very typical of kings. I have received no reading list in fact I have received nothing from them. I 100% agree that there system for allocating is ludicrous. I mean who has a random system. the places should definitely be given out through priority distribution. Anyway sorry rant over. It's just getting pathetic.

I know how you feel. I only recieved an offer today despite applying in early January!! This random system is not fair to students who live abroad or at least an hour away from London. I'm lucky that I have the opportunity to commute in case I did not get my place in halls. I'll be staying in Wolfson House!

Keep your fingers crossed! Kings' are allocating people on their waiting list now... apparently a lot of people aren't accepting their accommodation offers so there's hope - Keep ringing them up, they're useless. I spent my weekend researching like crazy with my friend from college, who's also going to be studying Geography at King's, for 2 bedroom flats lol! And I'll be doing BA, what about you?

How far do you live - are you within commuting distance? And here's a list of what's going to happen:

Hello everyone.

I have a single room from International Hall and I am looking to swap with a female who has a room at either College Hall or Connaught Hall.

Cheers.
PM me if you are willing to swap your ensuite at Stamford Street Apartment for my ensuite at Moonraker Point

Okay so I called kings. They now have a list. Has anyone else called?
Hey, I've been allocated a room at Ewen Henderson which is just a bit far from my campus but it's good for Guy's. It's also only £160pw which is quite a bit cheaper than most of the other residences. If anyone is interested in a swap (preferably Moonraker, SSA, GDSA or Julian Markham) let me know!
I am looking for a STANDARD ENSUITE AT CHAMPION HILL and am offering my cheaper, more closer STANDARD ENSUITE AT EWEN HENDERSON.

Accommodation Swap: I'm an international female postgraduate student, got allocated a self-catered large single studio at International Hall (£245/week) which is quite far from Guy's campus.

Looking to swap it for Wolfson house, Orachard Lisle, Iris Brook or GDSA.
Do contact ASAP!
