I’ve applied for Henry Price!!

Nice!!, I was considering Henry Price, I've heard its really social, affordable and it looks nice but my only thing is, I don't know if I want to be on campus because I kind of want the opportunity to explore the city through walking/public transport etcc.. What made you pick HP?. Maybe theres other things I should consider? I was drawn more towards Leodis, its quite modern and social and a few mins from campus which I like but not so far that it's a trek every morning!

I wanted a slightly larger flat and Henry Price is shared between 8-10 people, I also liked that it was close to both uni and the city!! I looked at Leodis when I visited Leeds a while ago, it’s deffo a really good distance from uni and if the flats were brighter I’d deffo consider it too

That is a fair point, Leodis does look slightly gloomy.. do you know anything about James Baillie from the open day?, I'm slightly far from Leeds from the school I'm at now so I wasn't able to go. I was just having a look around on the accom website and the distance was pretty decent and the flats were really modern. I've heard its pretty social too..

I’ve heard James Baillie is really social too, I’m just lazy and didn’t want to make the journey from Headingley to campus every morning haha

I'm also soo unsure about where to apply!! I have a pretty small budget but I really want to be as close to campus as possible because I'm chronically late... Was looking at the shared houses options because the rooms look huge for the price but I'm scared it'll be harder to make friends as it's only like 8 people to a flat and it seems quite seperate, unlike halls which I know is more social. Not sure what to prioritise, help!!

I looked into to Charles morris but it was waayyy to expensive for me but I’ve heard it’s really social and it looks really nice inside and out which is a huge plus and it’s practically on the campus

Montague Burton is often highly regarded in terms of distance from uni and affordability. Also heard it's on of the more social ones as you can get up to 8 people in a flat
hi! i also applied for geography! ive stayed at a friends' in white rose view and thought the flat sizes were good (6-7 ppl i think) and that the rooms were alright if a bit small. no one i spoke to had mold or silverfish either. its abt a 10 min walk from both the uni and town centre which is def a bonus

im staying there this year, its really social and everyone is really nice, i go out with my flatmates quite a lot. Yes its far away (about a 30 min walk to campus) but buses are really regular (to someone not from london at least) and its a nice walk! Also, Headingley is a really nice place with cute cafes for studying, loads of restaurants for loads of different cuisines, also a greggs, kfc, burger king..., bakeries, Sainsburys is literally round corner from lupton and there is an aldi a 20 min walk away in meanwood. It's good for getting out of the uni bubble a bit too, most people i know from other accoms haven't really left the campus/city center area. + its good for otley run and pubs. If you like running or walking there's meanwood park and trails. Can't think of a downside really.
