Lancaster University Accommodation

What's included in the college bedding pack? £35 sounds quite steep!

Duvet and cover, pillow and cover, sheet. Pretty basic. You can get cheaper and better. Only worth getting one if you can't bring much luggage - like if you are coming on public transport - or if you hate shopping and don't care about things like comfort and colour.

I've confirmed my accommodation in Cartmel now.

Glad that I got into Cartmel, especially as the moving day is on the Sunday, means I don't miss the Hull City game on that day (although maybe that would have been a good thing ).

Just wondering about a few things. I've heard about College memberships and something called a "Purple card". How/when do I acquire these things and are they essential?

Just a quick question, why has literally no one else applied and been given Bowland? I've been allocated their upgraded room which i was pretty happy with but is this not even that good?
Also, are the beds proper single ones or can you use like a double duvet on them comfortably?

I'm annoyed lol. I applied Pendle and County en-suite and no reply. Worried in case I don't get into either. Really don't want to share a toilet. HYGIENE FREAK :P

Ive just recieved my accommodation offer and im in Bowland, just the standard room.

Question about Furness: I just read that there is going to be significant refurbishment to all its facilities and there will be major disruption to services and activities. What will this mean for me? Does it sound a big deal?

Got my accommodation all sorted, though have a few questions:

1: How many Ethernet ports are there?
2: How many electrical sockets?
3: Are the beds in en suite full single or 3/4 size?

Cheers

1) just the one
2)depends on the room. my one currently has 4. i advise you to bring an extension lead.
3) theyre normal beds most of the time, but some are slightly longer than others. (i believe this applies to townhouses and superior ensuite

Merci

Urgghh, just read the ResNet terms as well, and you can't use an ethernet switch to be able to use more than one device at a time You don't happen to know if people have been using them anyway, do you?

I though as much - already planned

Would you advise getting single fitted or non-fitted sheets?


Thanks for the help

Not sure, about this, but if the 'other' device has wi-fi you could create an Ad-Hoc wireless network and just share the connection, although, having said that, i'm not sure of the 'consequences'. But it's what i'm going to do/try.
