oh mannnn . i was hopin theyd have good veggie food. i guess ima have to email em and try move coz i dnt wana be eatin bad food wen im used to my home indian stuff lol.
The vegetarian food wasn't too bad and some days it was better than the food for meat eaters. I am sure the veggie food will be alright again this year!
They did that to me last year and gave me a single room with a shared bathroom but I needed an en-suite for medical reasons. I rang up the accomodation office and they were really unhelpful, they said that I would have to move in and then ask for a transfer when I was there. My mum instead rang up student welfare and explained the situation. They asked for me to send in a medical note and told my mum that even if I were to follow their instructions, about 20/30 students don't show up each year and then more leave uni during freshers week. I was then allocated a catered en-suite in jofo pavillions. This was the case as a lot of rooms came free in jofo and a lot of people transfered. Some rooms were still vacant at the end of the year so there shouldn't be a problem transfering or ring the welfare if you can't get far with the accomodation office! Hope that helps and sorry for the long reply
Leanne - did you get the room you wanted before you moved in to accommodation, or did you have to accept the one they allocated to you and then transfer after university had started?
Im in the same position and need en-suite and self-catered, if I ring up welfare, will they help me get a room before I move in or afterwards?

I got the room I wanted before I moved into accomodation.
When I rang up welfare they said that because I needed it for medical purposes, I would have to send in a letter from my GP to clarify this. The welfare rang me back and told me that they had got me the room I wanted in the first place! Ring welfare and see what they say about this.

They rang you back before you sent in the GP letter or after?
Thanks again Leanne - I have now been allocated Bowder Court Flr 0 Block HH.
Has anyone else got pictures of the above bowder court, also how is it in terms of socialising and is it an old building, basically any information regarding Bowder Court would be great help, and pics?.
