Accommodation: Everything you need to know

Used the room preference as my top choice of halls wasn't available, and I got offered Rigg-Rutt today, it was my 2nd choice so i'm very happy!

Any other Halzerigg Rutland-ers?

Yup!

Wooo what are you studying?

I'm in Rigg-Rut

Awesome! That's 3 of us already, and it's only a small hall What are you studying?

I'm getting lost with all the extra things like fresher fees..

On the Rigg-rut page on Lboro website it says there's a fresher fee of £67.10, but then hall subs are £55 and an optional ticket is £65

What's the difference between all these things? :s

Hall subs are slightly higher for freshers than for returners - I assume the £67.10 is the hall sub fee for freshers and £55 is the fee for returners.

This "optional ticket", I guess is either "platinum" or "platinum extra"?

Hi rockchickm, I used the preferencing system as well and I got an email a week ago from the accommodation centre saying that I should expect an offer from the week commencing the 20th, since after A Level results more rooms become available. I actually got an offer today so I guess you should expect an offer soon. I'd advise contacting the accommodation centre if you haven't got an offer by next week just to check. Hope that helps.

p.s I'm in Harry French. Having trouble logging onto the finance page to pay the room bond using my student ID ect., will try again tomorrow but is anyone else having a problem?

Heya! Oh right I got mine for Harry French yesterday too And nope, my finance page is fine o.o

Yeah, everyone else is finding people in their halls, it's about time we did I'm studying English

I'm in Rigg-Rut too!!

I'm in Rigg-Rut too!!

hey,

yesterday I received an email from the accommodation centre. This is what it said:

Dear Student,

Congratulations, your academic place at Loughborough University has now been confirmed. Please refer to the attached document regarding your reserved room.

Regards

Student Accommodation Centre

However, there wasn't an attached document in the email. So I called them up and they said they will send a new one very soon. I even emailed them and they replied by saying we will reply to your enquire very soon.
I am now scared of losing my room because in the old email I received in june, it said that I had to pay the room bond online within 8 working days of receiving my University Student Registration number by the admissions office after my Academic place is confirmed. That was yesterday!!
so does anyone has the same problem here??
thanks

Computer Science You?

Yay, more Harry French people Do you have the standard or 4ft bed room?

Hi!I'm in the standard. What about you? I looked over Harry French before because I saw the pictures and thought it was posh (ie. out of my price range), but I'm pleased with what I've got. I studied Art Foundation at Loughborough last year but stayed at home near Leicester, should've taken more of an opportunity to ask other students what their accommodation was like. I only visited some people I knew in Butler Court a couple of times.

I have a standard room too Yeah, it does look nice in the pictures, though it's not as big as I thought it was (I had a quick look around the outside when I was there last). Still, it seems nice and it's not too expensive which is good! Are you doing an art subject then? I've just finished my art foundation too, but that was at a local college.
