its meant to be either 24th or 25th between 10am and 5pm. however, i am paying extra to move in on the wed before as i have a wedding on the weekend! but i won't be in there for a night until sunday 25th. what day do you reckon you'll move in? do you know when we'll find out which flat we're in? are they mixed sex flats?

It would be messed up if that was the case. Who would go to freshers? Probably the lecturers lol.

Freshers fortnight/week starts on the 26th, i got my info through the post today. I got 2 forms, did you get 2 aswell? Both are exactly the same, i think they may of sent 2 by accident.

i don't have a schedule, but i think it is different for each department. because i'm doing arcaheology the whole year group goes on a camping trip on the following weekend to moving in! i also heard that some departments have 2 weeks! lucky!

Hey!!
i also got an offer for John Dodgeson house.. i've only been able to find two pictures of it! Have you found any more?

http://www.ucl.ac.uk/residences/halls/self-catered/john-dodgson/index.shtml

I might go check it out next week, before i make my final decision of moving in..!!

(I live in North London, and only live 6 stops away from the University; so not completely sure whether i want to move in or not)

EDIT: Forgot to mention my course: Im enrolling in Economics (L100). Hope its not single sex sections!! :eek:

What do they provide you in the room? (as in, desk, shelves, closet?!)

Is it enough? or did the poor guy have books on the floor etc?

Can someone confirm the bold lines below, i found it on some Study Abroad website for hiring out rooms..

"John Dodgson House Summer Residence
From 27 June to 11 September only, self catering

about 10 minutes walk from the School
single rooms en suite
The residence has TV room, table-tennis and billiards tables, a coin-operated launderette and a bar
Prices
Single en suite per week: GBP 220.00 "

Does it have a table tennis/billiards table/bar?!?

Thank you in advance.

hey! another john dodgson resident, yay!

i've found a few pics. couple of the outside, one of a room and also the common room. it looks really nice. can't wait. still don't know if its singe sex tho. i hope everyone will socialise anyway! yeah i saw the thing about the bar, but it seems too good to be true so i expect its just for the summer. but it would be an added bonus!

come on, halls are an experience in themselves, you have to move in!!
