Is it hard to get a room in UAL Halls?

I’ve already applied for UAL accommodations however didn’t get an offer on the first round. How likely is it to get one of your choices?

At the moment it is only open to those who have placed their firm offer so there are still quite a few rounds

I just got an offer this morning, but it wasn't any of my choices and was about as far away from my college as possible so id say its quite difficult? Im not happy at all with my hall and was gonna look into flat sharing with some other ual/lcc students.

Yeah I’m kinda worried, I didn’t get an offer at all today even though I applied quite early and none of the other halls are possible for me. When did you apply?

Around the same time, I’m hoping that’ll give me more of a chance for the next round but I’m going to start looking for any back up accommodation

good plan, imma try again the next round. What course are you gonna do?
I applied as soon as applications opened, I'm supposed to be getting an offer today but I haven't heard yet. I'll let you know when I do! Where did you guys go for? My top choice is Highline but I'd be happy with Glassyard too

the costume house, I don't really know if I'm going to accept it though, it very far away from LCC and I'm not from a city or even England so idk, I might end up trying to flat share? or maybe reapply?
Oh wow that's ages away :/ At least public transport in London is excellent. I'm going to have a 45 minute commute at least because there isn't a lot of accommodation near Wimbledon. I don't think you can re-apply though. Everything I read said you only get one application per year.

There are loads of other halls around London which is good, plus private student renting which is worth looking into because the costume store is east London and quite a way away
