NO!!!!! I haven't even gotten my freshers pack (are we supposed to get one??), though then again that's probably because I'm an international student...

Hoping insanely for a good room - heard from seniors that Beldam Building has fantastic rooms...!

Yeah it's kinda small - especially since my previous school had some 850 people in one year alone! But I guess that's part of the charm (that, and the extremely central location. =))!

yeah got my pack yesterday. i'm on T stair, cant' remember which room exactly but its quite cheap - £619/term. just what i asked for!
hmmi think Bedlam is the newer block, so it makes sense that the rooms are full on awesome! i'm not too fussed bout rooms anyways.

On the accommodation form I just ticked the highest tarrif and wrote in the comments "If possible I'd like en-suite accommodation" :smile:

I'm pretty sure that's what I've got so I'm happy.

I can't wait to get my freshers' pack and figure out where in the world I'm going to be staying for the next year (haha)! =P

I heard Beldam was built around 1997 or something like that?

And 66?! Hmmm... (Okay I'm quite bored, just went to look up the stats http://www.cam.ac.uk/admissions/undergraduate/statistics/docs/corpus_christi.doc, I think they made 87 offers this year?)

Edit: Darn I should have written that on the accommodation form...!

Haha this might explain why my offer was 3As AND an S paper distinction. Wasn't worried about the 3As, but was extremely worried about the S paper distinction...!

21 people is quite a large number to miss, out of 87...
