Which halls are you staying in ? I was just going to take every thing lol I have no idea what my flat mates will be like so they may not want to share haha x

I am staying in Kingston Hill, standard en suite ;-) I just come back from shoping - even though I bought a minimum, it is still a lot... And I have to send everything to England (From Poland), as well as duvet, pillow etc...

I bought enough to be able to cook a dinner, but e.g. I have only one size frying pan.

It is soo true! I hope my flatmates will be gorgeous, but who knows... And I will have to live with them for a whole year!
But good thing is, I have my school 200 meters away...

Here is some 360 degrees views on some rooms:

Rooms are quite small, hope all of my stuff will fit in there!

So wait, all you guys have had your halls confirmations/emails already?

I'm going to be studying Creative Music Technologies by the way


Yes, I have, but I have submitted my accommodation papers back in the beginning of June. If you are studying Music, you are probably in Kingston Hill campus, right? Me to! ;-)

Nope, had nothing through? Has everybody else? Argh I want mine so I know when I'm starting! Excited! I just heard that there's a sims chance to apply for halls coming up which is a relief.

DO you know, that you can check on UCAS when are you starting? My course is starting on the 20th of September, like most of courses :-) (some are earlier)

And on the web side of Kingston is written, that they will start to send us all the details from 27th of August :-)

Helllooo!
I'm going to be studying Illustration and Animation, i'll be living in Clayhill.. Having a nightmare packing my current room because I have no idea how big/small the rooms are going to be. I have a standard en-suite, but I have way too many art materials/books so I'm a bit worried about space! Can't complain because I know some people don't even have halls! Trying to pack up an apartment into a room is hard work though! I seem to be throwing away half of my possessions!


Heyyaa :biggrin: and wow that sounds like a really interesting course! Aw yeah I'm sure its a nightmare! maybe check with people who have stayed at Clayhill how big the rooms are? x

I've had mine through but I'm doing nursing so I had to send a lot of forms back anyway. Maybe it depends on the course you are doing? Oh really is that for everyone or people who live far still? x
Also another question are you guys going to buy wristbands for the freshers stuff? or just going to buy tickets for each separate event? not really sure what to do yet x

I am! Halls applications are re-opening on the 27th so there could be a second chance there. What campus are you on? And what are you studying?
