I don't know about that group tbh. The only group I know about is the Freshers group 2017/18. Maybe we can start a new group by asking people to join here?

I actually have not visited the school yet but I've researched the school a lotttt. I also have emails where students that went there or still go there go into depth about their view of the school. I can forward those emails to you if you'd like. They give you a students point of view and its very helpful.

Also, you can find so much information here. This is a list some other account made but it was also very helpful:

This thread is super helpful for accomodation: https://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=5139124

This thread is short put reasonably helpful:

YESSS!!! You? A little anxious about housing situation. I'm looking for a self-contained apartment to myself. We shall see ...
Whereabouts are you in NYC? In Manhattan here in the Murray Hill area.

Cheers!
