Best Halls of Residence? (The Big Accommodation Choices Thread Mark II)

I don't know what's "random" yet..I could be in a place I prefer and still be surrounded by random people who never talk to me..tho' that'd be better than a place I don't prefer with people who never talk to me :-/ :P I would DIE if I have to share a bloody BATHROOM with males :-/ DUDE, wtf!! (being Indian, it just seems even more wtf!!)

Okay quick question for people presently living in the uni acco - not all halls have laundry facilities..so where do you do your laundry?

that is very unlikey..i say dont worry you need not have to share.. and try to be frnds with your flatma8s.. in general they are the only people you know outside your class friends... so dont worry too much.. i and my gf also hoping for fallowfield acco..drop by

I'm very sociable, I don't think that should be much of a prob, actually :P I just get hyper sometimes :P

I'm thinking of putting Ashburne hall under two of my preferences and another Dalton-Ellis..I don't know if that's wise a thing to do, but I hope I get Ashburne..too much noise would drive me MAD!!!

Your girlfriend is studying in UoM? Ah, I'm so jealous! I'm hoping for a long-distance..and we all know how those tend to end

Send them an email and they'll tell you your UID. I did the same thing, even if i didn't firm Manchester on Ucas yet because i didn't receive all the responses

what email address should we use for thisl?

u r in 12th rite? you already have a bf?? :P kidding.. yes shes coming there too.. all the best..LDR is damn tough.. but it all depends on how you make it work..luckily only 530hrs of time difference

i say you fill ashburn, dalton, and some other as third option. once you get the application submitted mail. just mail acco and tell that ashburn is my first preference. please try to allocate that to me as i have applied very early. you can aslo mention which floor you would prefer etc etc.. tell them ensuite room is first priority.. thay will not assure you get ashburn and the floor of your choice..but will keep in their mind..

Ummm..:-/ I'm 18 and an adult..:-/ And, it's not a "modern day relationship", I keep it suiting to my age, if you know what I mean..Well, we have pretty good understanding, we are the best of friends, so that's what I'm banking on WOW, I'm really happy for you!!

what email address should we use for thisl?

Hey guys,

I'm an international student from singapore, possibly, hopefully going to UoM to study Management and Leisure. ^^ ( cross my fingerscos i applied late and UCAS extra hopefully works or something)

I definately want a social life, not a stuck away in some quiet place studying my life away kind of uni life. Fallowfield sounds great so far, mainly oakhouse and richmond.

Just wondering if people there are open to international student who don't mind a good time. Also, i'll be 22 this year, kind of older than the usual.

Not to imply racism or anything, just had a really bad time visitng friends in another part of the world recently and acquired a new slight paranoia :/

still! UoM sounds like a tonne of fun (:

Thanks in advance for any advice/replies! (:

how welcoming british are??am not sure...someone else should take this question..

hmm. thanks guys.

guess if i get this intake i'll put those 2 options and 1 options from city campus.

Yeah i guess it's instinctive to look for familiar ground/surroundings, but i think half the point of studying overseas is to get to know people from other cultures and countries.

any advice on how far it is from fallowfield to the management and leisure classes? i only know it's in the school of education (:
