Bath Spa Accommodation.

Yeah, Hiscocks is definately the ones that you describe, and also the ones I liked most. I will apply for anything except Sydeny, Neville and Waterside court.

The thing that sucks is that I have an exam at 9am untill 11 on Friday...which im really annoyed about and hope i dont loose out on what i want because of it...

I was thinking about that. But knowing my mum she will mess it up or something, and I will end up living in exactly where I didnt want to for the first year of uni! Gaaah... Do you guys think I may miss out on my first choices (And dont end up in Neville, Sydney or at Waterside) if I apply just 2 hours later than everyone else at 11am?

Won't most people be in a similar situation as you though, having college or exams, or is it study leave now? (I have no idea, haha)

Does anyone know if having an unconditional offer will increase your chances of getting your first choice?

I don't think having an unconditional offer affects your chances (Which is a bit rubbish because i have an unconditional offer too :P) It says in the 'What Happens Next' booklet, "Accommodation will then be allocated online on a first come, first served basis (indicated by the date and time on your application). If we are over subscribed for halls, we will give priority to those living outside a 30 mile radius."

No, I don't think that you will miss out on your first choices. A lot of people that are applying will be in the same situation as you.

Hopefully. :P

Thanks for the reassurance! They must give me it, as I am over 30 miles away(About 200!) I will cry if I'm not on campus, lol...

Yeah, I also saw that.
I guess we do have a slight advantage though, we can go online as soon as it opens since we won't be waiting for any results.

Hopefully I'll get my first choice, a double room in Harrington, Hiscocks or Pope.
Not sure which to go for though, they're all the same aren't they?

Waiting for results? I'll be able to go online at 9am on Wednesday and I've got a conditional offer....

Yes, they are all pretty much the same.

Just out of interest... Why a double? (There's only about 6 in Harrington, Hiscocks and Pope isn't there?)

I was talking about the day they actually dish out the rooms first come first served, which I presume is results day??

My gf and I are both going to Bath Spa so we want a double room, it works out cheaper too.

It's first come first served on 6th June. On results day they just take the people who aren't going out of the equation.
