No one is guaranteed their 1st choice. The onlt guarantee we give is that if Nottingham is your 1st choice Uni and you apply by August. You are guaranteed a room. This doesn't even have to be one of your choices but it usually will be.
When you complete the form the room isn't automatically removed from our database, we have to do that manually.
If a room is showing available it means it was available at the start of that day and you getting that room is subject to how many applications we receive on that particular day.
I dont think so. The email that we got the other day said that they would be sending the offers out from the 1 june.
Ok, I was told they don't start sending out accommodation offers until the coming of the application process deadline (around August), but I might have been misinformed apparently

I hope no one here told you that. Basically, as soon as we can we will send you the offer. We don't want to leave it till the last minute as you'll be stressed enough as it is. Come June, there will be a manic flood of offers being emailed out.
You have no right to apply for accomodation if Notts isn't your firm choice.
Thanks, Sherlock
Alright, one more time: If someone, who has put Notts as insurance, doesn't get into their first, will there be any choice in where to live at Notts - or will most places have been allocated already and people will just have to go wherever there are free rooms? I could imagine, there is a quota of rooms that could be kept free, even though this is probably not the case?

There won't be a huge choice available but in the past few years, every students who has wanted a room has received an offer.
The rooms we allocate are directly proportionate to the amount of applications we receive. If we have 10 rooms and 10 applications we will allocate all rooms. Theres no point telling X people they will have to wait for people who would prefer not to come to Nottingham to apply as well. We may as well get them in there and settled.

Haha bad luck for you if you have wanted another university and haven't succeeded. So don't spread malice now

Fair enough, thanks for the quick info.

What do we have here? Internet big mouth? If this is your idea of 'spreading malice', you'll be surprised what real life is like once you move out of your bumble**** village, boy

Ow a bit of inferiority complex here I get it, don't worry about the surprises that life will serve me, I've had the chance to meet a lot of people like you, who decide that showing off arrogance is one of the best ways to seem smart and witty And by the way if you had had a liitle bit wider range of knowledge I suppose you wouldn't call one capital a "village". Still I don't like filling myself with negative energy so irrespective of your rude behaviour, I wish you luck with your university proceedings
It is no longer possible to choose a hall for University Park. Rooms are pretty scarce so you can only choose a room type and Site (i.e. Uni Park, Jubilee Campus etc)
my friend applied a while back for accomodation on the uni campus, but he's just got an email saying that they were all full and he doesn't know what to do now? can he apply again or is he just gunna be randomally assigned any left over hall?

tarrr!
It all depends on how specific he is being. The only way to know would be to look at his case. I can look if you want to PM your friend's UCAS applicant number.

We have received your accommodation application. Once your status becomes Unconditional Firm you'll be allocated a room, in line with your preferences. Allocations will be made in date order of application. Please note that you're not guaranteed your first preference, but we'll try out best to match one of them.
I got an email a while ago saying we'd be told from June onwards, so does this mean we won't be hearing until August?
Edit: oops you already answered this on the previous page Looks like the portal's wrong then!
In the case of Accommodation ONLY, please ignore the portal. It is out of date and completely incorrect. Offers are being sent out from next week onwards.
