    Hey, just wondering if anyone knows whether I can apply for housing before I accept the offer because I'm worried I'll miss out?
    Cheers

    Okay, so you havent got your C grade yet, but you have been offered a place at EH? I mean, I know you will achieve this grade but the point is that they can offer accomodations ,,conditionally"...ohh thats would be really great. Sorry for the questions but there are no other place where i can get my answers from
    thanks really!
    Obviously they can as I was given a conditional offer for BA Photography at LCC and I have only studied a-levels- I get my results 20th August. I have been offered and accepted at place a EHC

    Re: UAL Accommodation
    Regarding Will Wyatt halls:

    My girlfriend has been living there since september 2010 (it is now april 2011).

    She has reported that despite keeping their flat fairly clean, rats are not uncommon in the kitchen. There are also numerous reported cases of tenants being infected with threadworms - not a serious illness but quite disgusting and nasty.

    There appears to be nowhere for her to register a complaint. This seems to me a good example of universities and student landlords taking advantage of student naivety, and is pretty well unacceptable! This being the only place we could find to make it public, we thought it appropriate that people deciding which halls to live in saw that this one was not as good as people here are saying.

    I'm under 18 so I have to live at furzedown and cedars. Does anyone know something about these halls? The new block at furzedown is the B-block, right? It makes sense but I figured it would be better to ask anyhow. I'm thinking about applying for the new block as I heard it is considerabily better.

    I'm going for Julian Markham Manna Ash and Don Gratton I think. Those seem to be the ones everyone goes for. Theres bad things about all of them it seems so in the end its basically all about the location! Do you know which have en suite?

    All of them plus WW I believe, I'm going to go for will wyat first as this is much closer than others to kx site walkable even. And I quite like hoxton area. Then don gratton and finaly manna ash...

    Re: UAL Accommodation
    I'm starting the CCW foundation this September & was going to apply for Bernard Myers House, Brooke Hall and maybe for my last choice Julian Markham? Due to medical reasons it's important I'm not too far from college.

    Anyone else on the same course applying for the same halls? If anyone could tell me about any of my choices (or perhaps I better 3rd option than Julian Markham) that would also be good. I haven't heard that great stuff security-wise about Bernard Myers but then read a conflicting report somewhere else saying that it's improved in that respect recently.

    Hi!

    I accepted my offer for a BA in Film and Television at LCC about a month ago, but I have not received my student ID number. I was wondering if anyone has had their student ID yet? I really want to apply for accommodation :-/

    Was it not on the letter you received offering your place at the university? It should be the first 3 letters of your surname with an 8 digit number afterwards.
