The Warwick Accommodation Thread (+Guide in Post#1)

Cheers, I hope you hear back soon. Weirdly I didn't get an email, but that may have been because it was Sunday. I also learnt that they expire in 2 working days so I'd advise checking regularly.

It's on the website - sorry for a cagey reply, but when I was a student ambassador at my undergrad people would ask about the rent prices and the university specifically said not to tell them exact figures for one reason at another. But it's around one hundred and fifty per week and totals to about 90% of my tuition fees.

What do you mean by " I also learnt that they expire in 2 working days so I'd advise checking regularly."

It said that the offer is valid for 2 working days when it is given to you. So if the offer was given today (Sat) then I would have until Tuesday to accept it, after which I cannot accept it.

All mines saying is this so im gonna assume that they havent decided yet??:
"STATUS: Your application has been submitted, we will contact you if you are successfully allocated a room or if we need any further information."

Yes, so you have nothing that can expire.

Good luck and I hope you get what you want.

Got allocated an off-campus en-suite apartment accommodation with Study Inn, will cost £150 p/w.

Disappointed I'm not on campus, but the apartments look nice and have plenty of facilities. Plus I'm receiving a decent bursary, so I can take some solace from the situation...

See you at Warwick lol.

I'm genuinely sorry to hear that because it's really not something any new student should have to do. There's always the week 3 transfer request system if it's unbearable. Good luck!

@Hello1236969 Undergrads do, provided they apply by the deadline. For postgrads it's slightly different in that only overseas students are guaranteed accommodation, and whatever is left is given to everyone else, so UK postgrad students are at a slight disadvantage. I think there's about 10k postgrads for 6k accommodation spaces, some of whom will be people who've found their own accommodation anyway..

I got in through clearing so I haven't even applied for accommodation yet... how screwed am I?

I'd do anything for en suite but I guess it's literally impossible now. I really wanted Arthur Vick/Jack Martin but they're heavily subscribed so I doubt it at this point.

I assume Lakeside/Heronback are less subscribed, anyone know if they're any good?

Also which of the following is best: Rootes, Westwood, Cryfield, Redfern.

En suite is very important to me but it seems unlikely at this point since I got in through clearing and I'm probably at the bottom of their priority. They haven't even sent me any additional information yet. But I look forward to it.

BTW, does anyone know any info on how hard it is to transfer courses or when to email about that? I don't want to do it so soon after getting accepted.

Hey I see you're applying through clearing too! Have you heard back from accommodation? I'm kinda worried coz I haven't and I feel like it's because I applied through clearing. It just says this on my account: STATUS: Your application has been submitted, we will contact you if you are successfully allocated a room or if we need any further information.

Am I the only one who cannot access accomodation details? I have been trying for more than an hour now since they sent the email but the website won’t respond 😡

I can’t either. Probably cause loads of people are trying to access it at the same time

How does the university inform you about accommodation? Email? Log in somewhere? Had an email ages so saying that accommodation would be sent out before end of August. Getting worried now I'll lose out on a campus place at this rate.
