hild bede storage?

i am sure this topic has been covered before, but i am still not to clear on it. During the holidays i am going to be flying back home, since i am an international studnet. So will there be any storage places for me to keep stuff?? any estimates on how much this would cost too??

cheers!

I'm quite certain there is, but I don't know at what cost.

In certain colleges you can rent your room for the entire academic year, including vacations. Althought it costs more, it's worth it if you're international. I know Hatfield does it, but you'll need to speak to your College.

I was reading the new 2008 prospectus, and it says that it's 120 pounds per week over the vacations, and I think that price is the same regardless of your purpose for the room (ie, storage or living). And that'd total nearly a grand or so.

BUT, I contacted Collingwood about this issue earlier, and I have it confirmed that it's 500 pounds for Christmas + Easter, minus two weeks, which cost 86 pounds each, for a total of 672 pounds.

So, maybe they've decided to change the price for the 2008 year? I have no idea, best to e-mail Hild Bede. And if you do, do relay their response.

You can have extended let, which would allow you to keep your room. You can get it after you arrive, though, and that is probably a better idea as I had padlockable cupboards in my room and always left loads of stuff in them in the holidays. Technically it's not allowed but I think HB only says that so they have no legal responsibility over your stuff - most people I knew did it. I don't know if all rooms have those cupboards but like I said you may as well wait till you get there and find out.
