It's mixed between all three; PG, International and UG. I lived at Opal (practically the sister of Nixon) and I found it to be mainly international/UG. I knew someone at Nixon who would say the same. Obviously they try and place you in a flat with similar students so don't be that afraid. Nixon is great for three reasons; 5/10 mins away from uni, closer to local amenities (morrisons is 5 mins away and town is about a 25 minute walk) and there's a pub about 2 minutes away from the main blocks, ahha. Obviously the closeness to uni is a big bonus on nights at the union. (It'll save taxi fares if you have someone to walk back with) I would say if you want a more sociable living quarters though, I'd go for Oadby. Plus Nixon has only been half renovated. If you live in the renovated blocks they're amazing (expensive too!) but the other blocks are standard student living quarters.


what blocks are the renovated ones?

Yeah I know, doesn't even matter what it looks like we'll be too busy! Oh that's cool, I'm doing English and history :biggrin:

Also at the end of my accommodation application they asked if I wanted same sex or not, and I said no so I think it'll probs be mixed. But they usually put boys on the bottom floor I think.

Hi I've been put in Digby Hall for accommodation, yellow block, first floor, flat 4, room G, anyone near me? :smile: also does anybody know how many people which will share a bathroom in there? thanks:smile:


I'm in orange block of Digby Hall, ground floor, flat 1 so I'm pretty close to you :smile: and I'm assuming it will be about 8-10ish but I'm not sure. Have you seen that accommodation before, I haven't seen it at all so I have no idea what to expect?
