Have you already been sent everything from Exeter? I haven't got anything from them yet. I'm a bit worried that they think I didnt get the right grades to go there cos on the UCAS website, they've changed my insurance choice to an unconditional offer and left my firm choice (Exeter) as a conditional offer.

Does anyone know if this is what is supposed to happen?

Thanks

Oh excellent. I just wanted some general info...like, what are the rooms like? Also, what are the facilities in Kay House like? One more thing, did you find teh 15 minute walk irritating: coz im trying to decide whether or not to take a bike..

How strict are the Hetherington house rules? e.g. regarding poster on noticeboard rules etc.

thanks

The rooms contain a desk, a chair, a bed, a lamp, a sink, a wardrobe, a bedside drawer thing, a bin and a fridge. You also get 2 sheets, 2 pillow cases, a towel and a blanket.

If you can deffo take a duvet as sheets and blankets just get annoying.

You have a tyled floor, and 2 painted walls and prob 2 brick walls.

The walk is ok, a little bit annoying sometimes but tbh a bike might even be slower.

Dont worry about the poster rules.
