NTU accomodation application form???

i just confirmed a place at NTU but im having problems with the forms they sent me. Is it just me or does the application form for accomodation just not include enough content. :confused:
I was asked for my room of preference in terms of standard, en suit etc, and to list the sort of accomodation in order of preference, ie halls, prvt sector, lodging etc. But at no point did it ask to state a specific hall of residence that i wanted or state the campus at which i study. am i to expect more forms through the door soon?
im really confused
can any1 !!!PLEASE!!! help????
thnx spider xx :rolleyes:

do they not consider which campus ur studying at? i really am seriously worried , cus if i end up getting a hall 4 miles away in the centre from the clifton campus, then i might scrap that and look for pvt accom in the surrounding area of clifton.

btw wat course are u goin 2 b doin and at which campus?

Hey! Im doing quantity surveying and commercial management at the city campus. The whole accomaodation thing is really strange.I got my form on friday and sent it off on the day.I will be really annoyed if i have to find private accomodation especially being a fresher this year.

i got my form saturday and sent it yesterday, hope thats doesnt make too much of a difference. :frown: I rang up the accomodation office at clifton 2day and they said that they asked for the course you study on the form, from that they figure out what campus you are at and which halls are most convienient, they said that the allocation is random as a place is not guarenteed ( and thats y they can get away with it, basically ). Its not the end of the world if ur 5 - 10 mins away or if the room isnt exactly what u want i suppose, either way its a good reason to out and about. :tongue:

neway best of luck and i hope this helped (even tho it was me askin for it initially)

OH MAN!!! i sooooo appreciate that msg, i followed ur example and rang up clifton accomodation, AND IM IN PEVRELL!! whooo hooo!!, Ne1 that is worriend abt their accom, id go onto the NTU accomodation contact page :

NTU Accomodation contact page

and ring up the number to find out weather u have a place, no matter what campus ur based at, its such a relief to find out if u have a place or not rather than have to wait. If u have got a place in halls, Congradulations!

If not dont panic, id say go down and look around, if ur at clifton ive heard that The meadows is a good place and ive been told to stay away from a place called St. Annes.
