University of London Halls: The Garden Halls 2016-17

OP

I have been offered an en-suite catered room but ideally would like to swap with someone who has a standard superior self-catered room. If anyone is interested, please message me!

Ahh fair enough, they are quite pricey. But I'm pretty sure the shared bathrooms are just one between two rooms :smile:

I'll hopefully be doing BSc Economics w/ Economic History (not sure if I've met my offer :colondollar:

)

btw - do you plan to work in Management afterwards? and where did you do your bachelors degree? if not at LSE, how was it, getting accepted for a masters there?

Hi i have a single ensuite room at frances gardner house which is self catered. I was wondering if you are still up for a switch? The rooms at frances gardner are quite big!

I don't suppose any postgrads can tell me what the Garden Halls are like? I don't want anywhere *too* noisy or messy!

Hi ! I'm a prospective student to UCL and I'm thinking of applying to Gardens Hall for 2017-2018 but what worries me is the possibility to get to know everyone and make friends in this huge intercollegiate hall. Is it a friendly hall ? Do you get to know/befriend people even if there are so many and your schedules do not necessarily correspond ?

What about social events? How many are there in a month ? What sort of social events are they ?

Yes, I eventually applied for College Hall, as it is just next to UCL (approximately 6 minutes walk away) and it's smaller (around 350 people) so hopefully more friendly :x

Hi I have just received an offer for Garden Hall (Sept, 2017), will be studying at UCL. I wanted self-catering and so received a Townhouse single. Does anyone have any info about how the townhouse rooms are? And among how many people is the kitchen shared, I heard 18, isn't that a lot?Any info on the amenities of the hall is appreciated.

Hey I'm about to start at KCl and I've also been offered a townhouse single! I was told u share the kitchen with about 17-8 people too, but its meant to be a big kitchen (3 hobs, lots of surface space etc.) so hopefully it won't get too busy :s I've heard the rooms arent that big though, plus you share a bathroom with another person (4 people per floor plus 2 bathrooms) but i think the bathroom gets cleaned every week so maybe that makes up for it lol. What course are u gonna start??
