Ive looked on the welcome app and it seems that key collection and enrolment starts on the 21st. Where has the 23rd date for move in come from if you can do all of that stuff on the 21st?

As far as I'm aware, arrival and enrolment of international students begins on 20th September, and arrival and enrolment of UK students begins on 23rd September :smile:

Information can be found here :smile:

Hi, saw on the accommodation site there is a network quota on the internet at Keele. Any idea how small this is?

What ive heard is its not real, and its just said to try and stop extremely high usage. Basically just stay reasonable.

Do you know if getting a parking permit is easy or do they rarely give them out?

I remember many students having problems getting parking permits last year, and I saw lots of complaints on Facebook. There are specific criteria that you need to meet, and as parking space on campus is limited, I think parking permits at Keele are normally quite difficult to get (I haven't applied for one myself, so I'm going based off the experiences of other students that I have seen). This page has more information :smile:

Keele is very diverse in terms of its students, there are students from lots of different countries and backgrounds. Nightlife is good I think, personally I'm not one to go out drinking etc but my friends enjoy it. There are lots of societies that put on events like music and quizzes too, so there's plenty of variety. I wouldn't say it was boring :smile:

59% Female
29% BAME (Black, Asian, and minority ethnic)

Nights out are good initially but quite a few people got tired of the student union overtime. Nightlife in local areas isn't there that much. They do pull in some really good acts though and I always enjoyed the SU nights (mostly)

...ahhhh. Apologies! I meant for joining them - I know for some universities (including the one my twin sister is going to be attending), you have to pay to join the society. I know one of them (I forget which) on the SU website said it was £2, but none of the others specified? Is it just that it doesn't work like that at Keele? Sorry if this is a stupid question!!

Do you mean the cost to join societies? If so the price completely varies from £2 to slightly more for the sports ones.

Most of the prices should be listed on the Keele SU website.

Or maybe you meant entry into the building itself? If so,
Entry to the SU building is free when there isn't an event. Each event is a different price but typically between £3-6

Just like any other night out! Usually, they have a fancy dress theme but the 2 yrs I've been here barely anyone does it as it isn't very impressive!

If you've received an email with your Keele IT log in details, then you can access your email by going to the Keele University website and clicking on 'students' at the top of the page. When you log in, go to The Office tab, Mail and Apps, and follow the link to your university Google Mail account :smile:

I'm not sure about the social sciences dates :smile:

If you go onto your course page on the Keele website, there is a link to the Module Catalogue for that subject under the Course Content tab. Click Module Catalogue, then select your course and the year you're going into (e.g. History Single Honours Level 4), to view the list of modules for the year. Each module has a Further details link, and if you click on that, there should be a Talis Aspire reading list underneath the course description :smile:
