University of Leeds Accomodation 2011

Original post by Teh User

I seem to remember that accomoffice said a couple of days ago that offers would be sent out on Friday, and then Monday. So it doesn't seem that they're working on weekends.

We were working yesterday but not sending out offers. There's only a very very small percentage gone out so far

Am I going to be the only one moving in on the sunday? I am coming up to Leeds from plymouth on saturday morning and going shopping (as I am going up on train with only a suitcase :frown:

) for decorations and pillows and food - leeds has an ikea no? Possibly staying with relatives and then moving in on sunday. Should I move in on saturday instead?

I'm coming up from St. Austell on the Saturday :smile:

West country solidarity!

Wilkinsons is good for that sort of thing, as is Asda and there's deffo those two in Leeds.

Is there any way to find a copy of my application? Can't remember which preferences I put!

You should have received an email when you applied which confirmed what you'd put. If you can't find it, ring. (08701200189)

There is an Ikea but it's a fair bit out of town and I've no idea how you'd get there on public transport. Hopefully the nice relatives can drive you there :biggrin:

Ah ok, it's not so much a case of desperately wanting my first choice, it's a case of really really not wanting the one that was described as quiet and popular with postgrads and internationals (don't remember the name).
And one I could afford would be nice...

Don't worry - that's nearly full so you certainly wouldn't get that unless you'd picked it (and even then, the chances wouldn't be that high)

I'm gonna be doing English Lang and Lit :smile:

Moving into Lupton on the Saturday. I don't think moving in a day later than everyone else will make too much of a difference. You can't make solid friends in a day :P Just be really nice and social to people.

Ah, I thought you were having a sneaky couple of days off before the manic week ahead. Still, you've done a good job so far, but then watch me get some halls I really don't want and it will be 'Oh I don't like accomoffice, they gave me halls I really hate' (just kidding :colondollar:

As has been stated numerous times, you will recieve your accom offer sometime over the next couple of weeks via email. Remember to check your junk folder as they tend to end up there. Once you have recieved the offer, you have 7 days to pay the deposit and accept the offer. Most people will move in on the weekend (17th/18th) but there will be some that move in before. Freshers events start on 19th, but there may be the odd event during the weekend before as well.

Wheyyy!

I've been working at the Eden Project all summer and I've got a proper farmers tan, including a prominant V on my chest from a polo shirt and a watch line. I'm doing wonders for the modernisation of the west-country stereotype :smile:

My Mummy's bringing me in the car :3 I wouldn't want to take all my stuff on the train, I've done Plymouth/London trains with a load of luggage and it's not something I'd like to repeat! (Plus I don't have to pay train fare wheyyyyyy).
