Moving during pandemic

I’m supposed to be moving into my accommodation in October but I’m not sure I’m ready, it’s coming around too quickly. I love the job I have right now but I do want to move. It’s 3 hours away and very expensive (obviously), and I would realistically only be in one day a week. However due to the pandemic you can delay when you move in, but will that diminish my uni experience and make it harder once I move?

Hi, I know what you mean! This summer has flown by and everything is happening too fast!! I found when I left my job that I only remembered the good parts about it! I don't think living in accomodation would make a difference to your uni experience but if you had to commute for 3 hours just for uni, you may miss out on the after uni socials and going out with new friends etc.. a job is usually around for whenever you need it but going to university is probably a once in a lifetime thing! Try not to worry about it and just take each day at a time! Good luck!
