Hey I'm Ricky and I'm an alcoholic....
Haha Nah I'm messing but this thread does sound like an AA meeting.

I'm studying International Marketing at Marylebone and I'm staying at Student Court.

Anyone looking to smash Freshers? considering buying some wristbands early but thinking we can easily
get them at orientation / when we get there.


Finally! So Im not the only one doing this course after all! :biggrin: But Im not staying at halls, been renting for the past two years so I will stick to that..

About the wristbands, I think it would be wise to get them now because some of the bigger events are about to sell out. Which parties do you want to go to?
Hello guys,

My name is Kiri but I'm living in London travelling to Cavendish from home so should be boring as hell. I'm doing electrical engineering so is anyone else doing it? Plus, does anyone know what will happen during freshers week?

Yaaaaaaaaay Lab partner ;D XD Ahh i know. Ohh i went on a tour of our cavendish campus yesterday and looked around, The library is filled with tons of books! Plus, i don't think many people know this... But apparently we are also allowed to use UCL's library too! I got told yesterday XD<br>Ohh i found a few books on ebay for like 30 pounds, buh there's one like ...more than 150 pounds... i aint that rich XD, I'm probably buying the 30 pounds one XD But the guy who was giving me the tour told me not to buy books now due to his personal experiences, where he ended up not using most of the books. Ohh and there is a bookstore in our campus where we can buy books at a discounted price. I don't know how much cheaper it is, but the tour guy said its cheap XD&nbsp;
I know you can buy a UWSU block ticket for 65 pound for a fortnight of fresher's events, now on the SU website :smile: if that helps!

You went on a tour? That's awesome! :biggrin: I actually have never seen the place...so I got some major exploring to do on the 15th. I love books! Do you know the library's policies? For example, how long can we borrow the books? 30 pounds is still a lot for one book...:s-smilie: Are you talking about the recommended reading or books we actually need with us? You know...the ones you brought. Because I don't know what we'll need...I don't have a book list... :confused: Discounts? I love discounts!!

Haha yup XD I actually went to see how i have to travel to the campus. So when i made it there, i asked if i could get a tour, and they were like, okai, come back in an hour. Soo sweet XD Ohh i shall come exploring with u too XD Ive seen most of the places, so it should be fine XD Unfortunately nope!... i Should've asked that question XD Oh yup the recommended ones! even i dont know what are the actual books we are using XD Haha i go anywhere for discounts XD
I think we can relax for now, then on the 16th we'll meet out tutors and ask them :P And either buy them online or in the book store on out campus. The people at westminister are really nice :3

I am latif anyone doing human and medical science. Could anyone tell me if the uni has people that are friendly


I'm going to study Human and Medical Science :smile: I have visited the campus; it's pretty decent and the facilities are quite impressive. I don't know whether the people are friendly or not, but once you join societies I guess you make more friends from there.
