what is the night life like?

Following from what Queen Cersei said, it is for the most part cheap and (very, very) cheerful. If you want a classier sort of place, there's a few bars down at Bedford Place, but I don't think people go there when on a student budget... :tongue:

Hello! I have just received my offer (conditional) for MSc Risk Management, starting this September. I am an international student and was wondering as to when exactly do I register for accommodation. Should I wait until I get an unconditional offer ( which would be in July) or do I register for it right away ?

Hi - you can apply for accommodation as soon as you have received an offer, conditional or not: click here to begin.

I think they accept applications till the 1st of August, and they don't allocate accommodation till end of August or beginning of September.

Hi, I was wondering if you can apply for accommodation for Southampton with it being your insurance choice?I'm a bit worried, because I feel like I'll more likely than not end up at Southampton, as the entry for my firm is higher than I think I'm capable of getting. I chose it anyway, as it has a placement year for my course, and also for location sakes, but I would still love Southampton if I don't make it into my firm choice. So either way, I don't really mind. My issue is, though, I read that you're only guaranteed halls if you apply before the 1st of August, which is before results day. I really want to stay in halls, and don't really wish to rent privately. If I only get to apply on results day, what's the likelihood of my getting accommodation in halls? If there's a good chance, what halls would it be?

Thanks

Which halls would you recommend if most of my lecture/class time will be spent at Avenue Campus? I would be looking for self-catered.
I have looked at the website, but was wondering if anyone has any first hand experience of being a humanities student at Southampton.

What is the university's policy on transferring courses? I have firmed Southampton for electronic engineering but have been having doubts. Would it possible to switch to aerospace, assuming that I get the required grades, and if so, how might I go about doing this?

Good afternoon! I sent in my application via UCAS this morning to the course G1F3, it allowed me to do that and I had previously looked at the course. However, when I went to check on your website a few minutes ago and searched the code, the weblink says there's a 404 error, and I now see two other similar courses but with different codes. What's happening? What should I do?

When is the deadline for applying for accommodation 2016?

Hi, the deadline for accommodation applications is 1 August.

Original post by annieprincess

Hi, your application must be made before the deadline on 1 August to guarantee you a place in halls in the event that you come to study at the University, but submitting it does not lock you into anything.
On Results Day, if it emerges that you will be joining us, we will process your application and your place will be guaranteed. If not, we will be informed and your place in halls will simply be allocated to another student.
We recommend that you submit an application for accommodation as soon as possible.

Hi, in terms of proximity, Highfield Halls are the closest to Avenue campus. However, these are relatively small and often in high demand, so this is worth considering when you apply.
All of our Halls of Residence benefit from close and direct access to the dedicated Unilink bus network, and first year students are given a pass for the duration of the year. Buses run regularly and schedules are based around typical lecture periods in term time - as a general rule of thumb, you will never be more than a maximum of 20 minutes away from your destination. Once they have arrived, the vast majority of current students agree that choosing halls where you feel you can live comfortably is more important than immediate proximity to campus!

Hi, course transfers are possible, but handled on a case-by-case basis by the faculty in question; we recommend that you contact them directly. For more information, please email our Admissions team: [email protected]

Hi, thanks for bringing this to our attention, we will follow up with the web team to rectify. In the meantime, please contact the faculty admissions team directly with your application details to hand, they will be able to help clarify.

How big are the business school postgrad classes? I've heard complaints that there's not much contact time due to size
