Hey guys, I have just been acepted to UCM and I was wondering if anyone knew much about accommodation? I want to book some soon as I have heard it is oversubscribed and I will definitely be using the UM Guesthouse as it seems like by far the best way to secure accommodation from the UK and I want to live near a lot of other students to approximate the social experience of British uni halls.
I am looking on the Maastricht Housing site now, and I am in two minds about whether to apply for a room in the Bosquetplein/Zwingelput accommodation complex close to UCM on which 38 Bachelors and Masters students live (because it would be lovely to be able to roll out of bed at 8.50 for a 9 am class!) and the building on Brauersweg where apparently up to a couple of hundred students live in the building, and the rooms also look nicer but it is 20 minutes further away from UCM... Do any current students have a view on which is preferable? Above is all the information I currently have, so any insight which might affect my decision would be super helpful e.g. if one or the other is a particular social hub or has a higher concentration of Bachelors vs postgrad students or either has outstandingly better facilities?
