Durham college allocation 2016

Well I just got the confirmation, officially a Van Mildert member

Same, although it looks quite good on reflection

I'm a bit annoyed that only 5% of the rooms are en suite, and I really wanted a self-catered option because I feel like part of uni life is cooking for yourself but maybe I could get over it Those are the only two things I don't like about it, so other than that, I agree it looks like a nice college.

My son got allocated Grey, very disappointed, might be a deal breaker

Van Mildert is self catered https://www.dur.ac.uk/van-mildert.college/undergraduate/accommodation/

Dammit didn't realise only one block is en suite hope I get one.

I received an offer for English Lit last week and have been allocated to Grey College - email came through today. I originally applied to St Marys as it was an older building and I had my heart set on an older university but it does still have the gowned formals and smaller number of shared rooms and supposedly the 'best bar' of the colleges, which is always a plus!!
I haven't visited Grey, hopefully will be attending applicant days in March, so I'd appreciate any thoughts on the college? It seems relaxed and friendly while still maintaining tradition which is perfect for me, I just wish it wasn't so modern!!!

Has anyone heard back from St John's college yet? Still waiting for my college allocation!

I'm still waiting too!

Applied to Hatfield got Hatfield. Im doing Nat Sci (Maths & Comp Sci). I know Hatfield is hated but I just though it was nice whilst I was there.

Did you put down John's on your application?

Yeah! and the more I've looked at
it, the more I like it, so really hope that's where I'm allocated!

Me too! I really hope I get allocated there! What are you planning to study?

Let's hope we both are!
I'm going to study NatSci with chemistry and biology! And you?

Me too! I really hope I get allocated there! What are you planning to study?

Trevelyan Natural Sciences, really excited now. I originally applied to Josephine Butler, however, now am worried about how much the catering costs at Trevelyan anyone else find it frustrating how most colleges are catered?

You can see if you've been allocated there if you go to the booking page on the website and click on the accommodation tab, I've been allocated there to do chemistry, I can't wait!

What is the booking page?

For the post offer visit days, there's a link to it further back on this thread, go to the bottom and press the button which says book now or something, then fill in your details for it (temporarily) so you can get to the accommodation section, where it'll tell you which college you'll be staying in, i.e. which college you've been allocated to.
