ECA accommodation

i was thinking that but i ve stayed on a hostel on cowgate 3 times - it was noisy but didnt bother me too much. my other consideration was warrender park crescent which looks really nice and is on a park but i just thought i would rather be right in the centre of everything and that i should stop being seduced by the smell of cold stone and fresh lawn. i thought about flatshare too but it sounds a bit too stressful to organise for my first year - especially with a bunch of people that i ve never met (+ i couldnt really just pop to edinburgh to view places.)
im doing sculpture starting in the second year. yourself?

Warrender Park Crescent looks so nice! Be seduced by the stone and freshly mown grass! No i couldn't really pop into Edinburgh either...I might do some more research into WPC. I'm still not sure about Cowgate though...
I'm doing painting direct into second year as well, doing a foundation in manchester at the mo, what about you?

I'm doing my foundation at Loughborough. Is your offer on the condition of getting a merit too?
Oh don't say that cos i had just made up my mind now you're unmaking it. Cowgate is noisy but it is such a good location in terms of everything that you could want to be near. my very presumptious and flawed logic for rejecting WPC went along the lines of thinking that if it is the furthest away from the town and the uni then its likely to be chosen by those who want to be the furthest away from the town and the uni and that kinda put me off.

Sorry to hear that, but rejoice in the knowlege that they are very friendly in Scotland (oops, they told me not to tell anyone)

I just realised that WPC is mainly for postgraduates anyway My offer's a merit as well yeah! I don't wanna be on Cowgate though, it's good to be near stuff but that's just taking the biscuit! Maybe we should start our own flatshare...

Helloo again, just wondering whether your friend has heard about ECA yet??

Hey. sorry i don't think i could cope with trying to organise a flatshare in my first year. i ve applied through the edinburgh uni site. Kincaid's first choice, college wynd second and robertsons third. hope you have luck in finding somewhere to live and hopefully see you in september.

Hi, No she is still hanging on waiting the hear - recognising that it is going down to the wire. Fingers crossed it will be +ve news and she can join you in the bun fight for a place to stay I'm sure she will be on board here if it is, but probably doesn't want to tempt fate before then.

In exactly the same boat, just had an offer for direct entry into 2nd yr sculpture starting in 2011, but no idea where to stay. Would it be a good idea to go into uni halls for the first year rather then finding a flat share?

Hey! I have a conditional for Photography at ECA, defered entry for 2012 first year start. Does anyone know if I should still apply for accommodation/SAAS even though I'd be starting next year?
Thanks

Ahh, thank you. Any idea about accommodation?
