Lol, you seem to be really worried that there won't be enough girls at uni. There will be! They won't make a floor all guys, and even if it's more guys, there's plenty of girls when you go out, on other floors, living close...Don't worry about that.

I got my email today and was allocated a room in Walton Court too. There are no set ratios though I seriously doubt they'd put a larger proportion of either sex. As for sharing, I think it said either 4 or 6, this link takes you to virtual tours of the accommodation - http://www.essex.ac.uk/vr/tour.aspx?tour=3 just check out the one that says South Courts for an idea of what the rooms are like.

I can see that inside Walton Court, are only undergraduate students; Then, it is true that they allocate rooms by this type?

yea...it seems so....they reserve some accom's e.g wolfson court for postgrads n just allocate the rest to undergrads...hope this helps
I got Walton Court too, I'm in WAC2.3/L.

To answer your qestions, there are 6, 13 or 14 students per flat, with either 1,2 or 3 kitchens. All rooms are ensuite, I went to a uni open day and I found South courts to be the best accomodation!
south courts is nice, but the towers are the best :p:

south courts is quite not parties, but you can hear a lot what was funny when people told you what you could hear
