Have you looked at the Liberty Living halls Allensbank house??? Im currently living there finishing my first year of uni. The staff are really helpful and its a great location for both Llandaff and Cyncoed campuses.

This is the link below with contact details if you'd like to book a viewing. They have a show room up and running if you would like a look.

Im not eligible for halls as I live too close! Well, about 20 miles :/ which is silly as I can't drive. :frown:


You are eligable for halls. I'm from the valleys (Blackwood) which is 21 miles from Cardiff. Im in my first year of uni at Cardiff Met, staying at Liberty Living, Allensbank House halls.

They have a show room up and running if you'd like to take a look, and you can book it there and then instead of going through the uni process of halls allocation. Here is the link below with their contact details. Hope it helps and good like with your first year :smile:

Hey Guys!

I've firmed my unconditional offer for Events Management starting September. :smile:.
What's everyone else studying?

I've got a conditional for Events Management! :smile:

I live in Swansea and I've applied for Plas Gwyn - there's been nothing to say that I'm not eligible or anything (I applied for halls the first day it was open for applications). And I'm going to be studying Events Management.
1 question - it says on UCAS our start date is the 16th September, is Freshers before or after that date?

I'm hopefully doing Event's Management at Cardiff Met also as long as I get the grades at College. Will know for sure in about 10 days time!!!!
I was really worried not many people had applied for Events Management and then I started reading through this thread and have seen a couple comments about people having offers which as settled my nerves a little. Hopefully be seeing all of you hanging at the back of lectures with me from September :smile:

I have a conditional too! The upside to that though is that for those of us with conditionals, if we don't quite get our grades for whatever reason, we are more likely to get a place anyway! Just... looking on the upside! haha. I know there's now 3 of us I've found planning on Events Management! =D
