Bath Applicants 2009

I've accepted my Bath offer Anyone know when the day you can start applying for accommodation is?

What's good about Westwood?

It sounds like the most sociable and you get these little shower pod things (I think, but I also heard they might be getting rid of them?)

Yeh I have heard that, i've also read some might be being kept in, I have no idea, I think the price is going up on all the accomodation according to the predicted prices for 2009

Mm I think that's the same everywhere though. Where do you think you'll apply? I don't even know the names of the others, so if we have to give more than one choice uh oh!

We applied for accommodation in june last year, I remember cos I had an exam in the morning, so was later applying for it!

As for where to apply to. Personally, I don't think any of the residences are more social or anything than any of the others. It just depends on who your house / flatmates end up being. Personally, I feel the westwood pod rooms are too small, but that's just personal preference. I thought I wouldn't really like sharing a shower and toilet at the start of the year, but it really hasn't been an issue. I've had to wait for the toilet once or twice, and never had to wait for the shower.

One thing maybe to consider is that if your on an O2 phone contract, apply for westwood. You can barely get signal in quite a lot of the eastwood houses (I have to be leaning out of my window lol), or in woodland court (not sure about Solsbury and Marlborough).

Hi I'm going to Bath to do economics next year and you did exactly the same A levels as me as well, I haven't found anyone else with that combination! Have you done/are you doing the year in industry?

How come your so sexy?

I got an unconditional offer from Chemistry with Management and so I'm coming to Bath and am so excited... I am now in Africa and have been traveling throughout for quite some time. Bath was the only uni I've applied to for a chem related course. All the others were econ but I was so keen on going to bath that I am prepared to do, and am sure I'll love, the course I have been accepted for.

If given the chance to change to do Economics and Int Development I would jump at it. The reason being that my travels in Africa have highlighted my passion for Development studies and I really feel it is what I want to do.

Does anyone have any idea whether it will be possible to change?

Should I speak to my Director of Studies asap, should I email the departments now??

Any help would really be appreciated.

Thanks so much
