Physiotherapy. Although I'll be living and be taught at Leicester, I'm actually a Coventry student :frown:. Its a bit weird, but its better than living in Coventry :wink:
What about you? I think i might ring up as well, as I havnt actually heard from Leicester yet, only Coventry :frown:
Beaumont is also an excellent choice, especially in the catered part (old court).

That's so strange. So you're taught at Leicester and graded at Leicester, but get a Coventry degree? x

Does anyone know if first year undergrads are allowed to apply for 'city living' accommodation? I'm a 'mature' student if that makes any difference. I can't see the point in Oadby when it is a 45 min walk from campus. :-\

Can anyone tell me which accomodation is mixed and which isn't?
Or will it tell me when I get the accomodation application?

I'm pretty sure you can apply wherever.

Wow, mind blowing observation there, I had never thought of getting the bus............. honestly.......

I'm not paying 5k a year to live a 20min bus ride away from campus; what is the point, I might as well commute (1hr drive) and save some cash. (screw the environment)

Anyway, I have now spoken to them and it seems that I do qualify for city living.

I have no idea where you get 20 mins from either, more like 10.

Screw the environment? Nice.

I've a most likely dumb question but..on the site the catered contracats are for 30 weeks total and the self catered for 39...can someone elaborate why there is such a difference?And also another question if I sign for a flat,is the whole fee displayed on the site payed by me or shared with other ppl etc.?

You can chose to only be given same-sex accommodation in the extra details section.
