Loughborough Applicants and FAQs 2015

Thanks Vicky, just tried again and it's worked fine.

Loughborough was my firm choice but when I went to reserve a room it didn't work because I was down as insurance on the system. By the time it all got sorted, none of the rooms left were suitable or appealed to me. I then submitted preferences instead and phoned the accommodation centre and told them about the mistake that had been made. They said they would do their best to ensure I got one of my preferences and that emails would start going out tomorrow (this was on Friday) but I'm still yet to hear anything and I was just wondering why this is?

Also, when does your room bond have to be paid by? 8 days after receiving your accommodation offer or 8 days after finding out you got into Loughborough?

Hello Vicky,

I got offered a place in Faraday Hall, was wondering how far from the school of arts (as I'm attending the art and design foundation course)?

Thank you

Just applied for accommodation, hoping to stay at Butler Court or Royce!

were you able to receive an offer for your preference? If not, I have a Royce Room available to swap

Ensuite? I am waiting for Loughborough to get back to me. I should know something by the 25th.

Do halls have ironing facilities?

Also, I am received an offer to stay in Royce? How far is this from the Business school, student union, library and power base gym. Also, is it seen as a lively place to stay?

Thanks

Hi, do you know when roughly emails are sent out regarding receiving scholarships/bursaries (LSP in particular)? Thanks

Random few questions. Confirmed offer at loughborough and faraday halls. Do irons get provided? If going fully catered (which still means cooking at the weekends) what kitchen facilities are there besides obvious microwave etc. is there a hob to cook on/saucepans? what about cooking utensils to bring for weekend cooking? Just don't want to double up on what already is provided. Most uni lists discuss items required for self catered places.

Has anyone checked out best bank/building societies for new students? i know Santander is on campus and offers student railcard but will they offer overdraft up to 1,000. Daily mail newspaper recommends Halifax which said they offer 3,000 but that isnt the case for 1st year students, they only offer up to 1,000.


THanks in advance.

Any semester 1 only students wanting to swap to my standard self-catered room in William Morris? Will swap for pretty much any catered hall. Rang up accommodation and turns out I can only swap with someone who is semester 1 only so pretty desperate for catered right now! Bit silly considering so many people in the loughborough freshers facebook group want self-catered but I can't swap with them
