Official University of Sheffield Offer Holders Thread for 2024 entry

Unless you are really set on one particular place for accommodation or have specific needs, I would recommend you just apply for whatever is on there when you look. Most of the blocks in Endcliffe are really similar, and there will be a mix of students across all areas so it wont make a big difference. Equally, there is no rush because they will continue releasing more places. Things will change a little after results day and clearing too, as not everyone will take up their places.

Can you select your accommodation then change your mind in a few weeks and book some where else ? Thanks

Hi,
It really depends on the time of day as some buses will be busier than others. However, I always found it to be okay and it is quite a regular bus route, so if it is too busy you could always get on the next bus. I found I took the bus far less than I thought I would when I was staying at Endcliffe. The walk isn't too bad and you definitely get used to it!
Hope this helped,

To any of the Sheffield reps why did you pick endcliffe instead of the city accommodation (vice versa )

You can but you will loose your original room and might not be able to get a better room

Hey!

I chose to live in Endcliffe (Rivelin to be more specific) because I was interested in being in a more social location and knew that a vast majority of students choose Endcliffe. Before I did any further research, Endcliffe was also the slightly cheaper option, which additionally motivated me to choose it over the City accommodation. My experience may differ from others, but all of my friends from Uni in first year also lived in Endcliffe which made seeing them much more convenient 🙂. I can't speak on behalf of City accommodation as I haven't stayed there myself, but I have heard people describe it as quieter and much less social than Endcliffe.
