Chancellors Wharf at Lancs Uni

Hi! I’ve just applied for my third year in Chancellor’s Wharf!I think that a positive is it’s going to be other third/second year students so hopefully they’ll have settled down a bit, another thing isthat since in town already I’d imagine with pubs and clubs being in such close proximity a lot of things would be moved to those.Also the flats being groups of 9 I think it’ll be unlikely that everyone else in your flat already knows each other since they wouldlikely have gone for a house instead.It may be worth reaching out to Lancaster about a quiet flat if that is something you want to request since there wasn’t anything onthe application form. Another thing to note though is the social areas of each ‘house’, it wouldn’t surprise me if socialisinghappened up there a bit which may move it away from happening in the flats themselves if that makes sense…Yeah I obviously can’t give any like personal info or experience since I haven’t lived there before but hopefully it’s something toease the mind a little and a bit of food for thought!

Hi I’m thinking about staying in Chancellor’s Wharf for my third year of Uni and I’m just wondering what it’s like - I love the overall layout of the place and it’s situated in a perfect location but there are a few things I am worried about.

I have ADHD and get overstimulated/overwhelmed pretty easily and get quite burnt out with socialising so is there a possibility to request a “quiet flat” or something like that. I worry I’ll move in to a flat with a group of friends living there and feel awkward or there’ll be house parties every other night which I find quite overwhelming.

Any info and advice much appreciated.

My daughter is 4th year currently residing at Chancellors and really loves it. She likes keep herself to herself, but sees the flatmate in the kitchen from time to time when cooking and likes the conversation. And the if someone wants to do a social she says its done in the common room in the loft area of the building, which is perfect. I cant see any issue asking the accommodation manager or putting something o the application you wanting a quiet room and why and im sure they could accommodate that. Theres a reception area which is at the middle building block and the reception faces aldi carpark, and you could make a few enquiries. Or you can email [email protected] or phone 01524 594470
This is also the facebook page so you could get them on there I imagine https://www.facebook.com/chancellorswharf/ Theres a recent post of the christmas tree decorations in the common rooms so you can see what they look like on the pics.

Hi

I'm a 2nd year student currently staying in Chancellor's Wharf and I love it here.

I moved in on my own and none of the 4 other people in my flat knew each other before hand and in the other part of my flat 3 / 8 people knew each other so you shouldn't feel awkward as most people are moving in on their own. Flats range from rooms of 5 to 13 so you should be able to request to be in one of the smaller ones if that would help you. If you can't select these preferences on the application form, email the office and they'll be able to help you and ensure you have the best experience here!

In terms of house parties, that doesn't really happen. Most flats, like first year, will do flat nights and have a few drinks together but that's about it and should they do, they will just go into Lancaster as it's a 5 min walk.

Hope that helps!

Any other things about living here let me know and I'll be sure to answer.

thank you it sounds ideal to me )
