Cooking equipment

Hello,

Would anyone recommend bringing your own cooking equipment?

Hi!

If you're self-catered then you'll definitely want to bring some cooking equipment. I don't think any of the accommodation on campus provides you with it.

If you have breakfast & dinner included in catered accommodation then you probably won't need any, but I'd recommend some plates and cutlery etc in case you want a snack or you miss your meal times for whatever reason.

The other answer said bring your own fridge/freezer, but to have one in your room is actually against university policy and personally I don't think you'll need one (unless for medical reasons and then you can request one). There was more than enough room for us all and any problems e.g. someone using a lot of room were easily resolved by talking. Also, microwaves are provided everywhere (I think), so you won't need to bring one of your own. Though some flats don't get a toaster, but you can just chip in with everyone and get a cheap one if you want to.
