Is £175 per week a lot to pay for uni halls - first year?

not if its in properly central london ( where then its probably bang on)

halls are always stupidly expensive and no fun. go on gumtree of roomshare and rent a private room in same area, prob save a bit of money

Yes it is. I think I might just go for it and pay the deposit before it gets too late

I applied for accommodation on Monday (Olympic Way 1st choice), just wondering if anyone knows when we'll get confirmation of which hall we've been offered?

Unless in London it's a rip-off.

Just wondering, how are you planning on paying for it? I mean it's £700 a month, will you just use student finance money or will you have other methods as well? Also, did you apply for a single sex flat?
