The email telling me my application to study was successful had my student number, so with that info I registered for the accommodation portal (about ten days ago). It worked then, but now the site is also really slow for me. I've emailed them about it.

The website let me in at like 12:30 and I tried to sign for an accommodation hall but I saw that the only hall choice for under 18's was Lorring Hall?
And then the website shut me off because I was inactive so I'm currently sending in a new application. Hopefully it works this time!
Hey guys!

We're really sorry about the ongoing issues with the accommodation application site, we're working on it and hope it will be back up soon. Thanks for your patience.

Is there any chance of knowing when the accommodation sign up will be up and running again? It's not worked for me since 1PM when I registered

Hi FlyAwayPixie,

Thanks for your message and your patience! Unfortunately the site is still down, we are working hard to fix the issue. I recommending periodically checking our Twitter page for updates. This page will also keep you updated.

We're very sorry for this inconvenience!

Many thanks,

Hey guys,

I got an offer from the Goldsmiths and it is really exciting:smile:
However I have been not able to sign up for the accommodation application.
I know the site was down till 11 May, and it gives me only these messages 'The date of birth is not valid. Please try again following the format DD/MM/YYYY' or my personal details are invalid since then. Even though I put my info correctly.
I e-mailed the accommodation office about this, but they have not given me an answer yet.
Does anyone who have same problem or solve it?
Hey everybody! I'm starting Goldsmiths in September to study Sociology! Living at home though which has me panicking a little...
I have accepted my unconditional offer to study English (with a foundation year) at Goldsmiths. I was wondering if anyone had any information on what the foundation year includes. For example, will it be college level? How many hours I'd be in lectures a week? Just any additional information. Thanks very much.

Hi Nafda,

Apologies, I missed your message! I hope everything went okay in the end? Once you've firmly accepted your offer you'd need to wait 24 hours before applying for accommodation, this may have been the issue. Let me know how you got on.

Ps Congratulations on your offer!! :smile:

Best wishes,
Shaun

Hi YazminL97,

Congratulations on your offer! :smile:

You can read about the foundation year here, under 'Modules & structure' - http://www.gold.ac.uk/ug/integrated-degree-english/

For timetable details, or any other queries about the course, you'll need to get in touch with the convenor, Dr Gail McDonald. You can reach Dr McDonald via [email protected]

Hope this helps!

All the best,
Shaun

If you're applying to study at Goldsmiths for 2016/17, this is the place to discuss your thoughts and aspirations with other potential/current Goldsmiths students.

If you've got specific questions relating to your application, courses, accommodation, Open Days or anything else Goldsmiths, give me a shout over here.

To get the ball rolling, which courses are you thinking about applying at Goldsmiths?

Shaun.

ps. We've got a fancy new website. check it out.
