Lancaster Uni: Official Students 13/14!

Does anyone know when we have to apply for our minor subjects? Do we do it when we get there or before hand?

Already costing a bomb and haven't even got there yet :P What does this £36 college membership actually pay for, surely £9000 a year is enough to cover it?

Can anyone help? I'm studying English Language in the Media as my major course and I'm choosing my minor courses and I've decided on Linguistics, but I'm stuck for the other one. I don't know whether to do Sociology or Media and Cultural Studies. WHICH IS BETTER? And does anyone have the timetable for those subjects if it is your major?

Hahaha, yeah, i've totally heard of terracotta! I'm definitely not googling it now

I'll have you know, i have a pile of stuff all piled up in my room rearing for use - plates, bedding, a new laptop, the lot! But i do need to get a suitcase lest i end up carrying everything in bin bags have you got anything left to get?

It was so hot in lancaster when i went in february, i'm not looking forward to the weather either D: Did you do the same thing at bournemouth?

Media & Culture is my major abd as far as I know there are no timetables about, just gotta wait it out for the timetables as far as I know! As for which is better id obviously say Media just because im doing it! Hahaha!

Haha yeah! Also I'd get like no money on a loan :') yeppp it's good! Though if I was getting a loan I'd be tempted to transfer it into savings, then give my self a monthly allowance from that to help control spending! Erm idk what building it is :') yeah haha I'll not think too much about it, just go where my timetable tells me to basically I can do any arts module :') so a very wide range! Do you have any minors? Hahah if you say so! Haha I need a few things :') and I need to pack... :') ooooooooooooooo bitchy true calculators are essential in life!

Yes I made you google I feel clever/knowledgeable

I think my parents are donating a suitcase to me, except for dropping off on first day and pick up on very last, I'm using the train the entire time :/
I need to get sheets and maybe some winter clothing I think that's it though

It was hot in February what is happening? They said it's cold and rains all the time there :s

No I did Computer Animation, but turned out to be mostly Maths and Programming I knew I had to do it but not that the degree concentrated on mostly that and they didn't offer any help or when they did it just confused everyone more. Plus horrendous organization so decided to leave

Ahh, I don't know what to do What if I don't like the one I choose?! Hate making decisions hahaha

Hahaha, Oh yeah, i'd forgotten you were kind of, but not really, posh Nah, i've got a lot of friends who really weren't gonna get much either, but they generally took it anyway. I think i might just divide my leftover money by however many weeks we have and pray to god i don't manage to mess up - i've got a weakness for amazon That's probably for the best, you don't really need to know more than what time and what lecture theatre :') Hmm, and what minors are you interested in at the moment? I don't have any myself - i'm starting to wish i did though! But engineering and pretty much anything else i'd like would sound silly Thinking of packing this early? But packing is for the day before! Hahaha, well you know, i have my moments :')

GUISE: how the hell do you pay the college membership???????

oh thanks ! how do I know my student number ?

If you go here: http://myaccount.lancs.ac.uk/MyAccount/FullITAccount/Account it should be the number under "Preferred ID".

I thought I'd write this here, in case anyone else was having the same problem as me. For my minor, I wanted to enrol in Creative Writing, but I was unable to. I emailed a few people and I found out that I'll be able to apply to take Creative Writing on Monday the 30th of September, during Fresher's Week. For more information, we shall be getting emails and there are also lectures during Fresher's Week. Also, for those who want to do Creative Writing, you need at least a B in English. I thought I should write this here in case people were encountering the same problem as me and were worried. I recommend emailing the head of department to see why you can't enrol and to see whether, like me, you can apply in Fresher's Week. If you need to, you can find the contact details for heads of departments by finding your course here: http://www.lancaster.ac.uk/a-z/ and clicking the 'Contacts' section. I hope this helps people!

Sorry to but in but you can change your module choices during freshers and if u still dont like them, also within the first 3 weeks of the course starting, but the sooner the better

Yo need some help with modules! I'm doing English Lit (with creative writing as one of my minor thingys), and don't have a clue what to take for my second minor module? I did Law at A-Level (and surprisingly, quite liked it!) so had a look at that but Criminal Law (what I did for A2) clashes with my timetable already so that's ruled out unfortuanately, but maybe EU Law and the English Legal System?

Anyway, any advice would be lavely
