Aberystwyth Uni Applicants 2019 Thread

Name : Bethan
Location : Newport South Wales
Course I applied for : Education

I’m 22 but I’ll be 23 when I go so I’m technically a ‘mature student’ even though I currently work with children and feel like one of them most days. I’ve had an unconditional offer and accepted it to study at Aberystwyth in September 2019. My accommodation was accepted too so I’ll be in fferm penglais. I loved the campus when I visited and I’m so excited to go! ☺️

I’ll be 20 going to uni in September! And got accepted for accommodation in fferm prnglais 😀

I’m Kate, I’ve been accepted onto the Marketing degree, are there any other mature students on this course?

Hey guys! Anyone else received a hand-written letter from a professor at Aber about your application and PS? (It's been a while since I did, however, I just found out about this thread and I'm curious).

Just had my accommodation accepted and I’ll be staying in Trefloyne! Does anyone know when we get our aber uni logins to check future emails?

Has any body else still not heard about accommodation??

Hello!
In terms of accommodation, do are the seafront rooms worth it? They look really nice and spacious but everybody else seems go for Fferm Pengalis...

Hi Annguun,

The Seafront accommodation has an incredible view along the beach and gives you the opportunity to stroll down the front whenever you like as it’s literally on your doorstep.

Personally, I stayed in Fferm last year and am again this year. I loved the flat I was in, the room was so spacious and I appreciated the en-suite. Another upside to Fferm (as well as with the other accommodation) is that it’s close to the campus.

Ultimately, it’s best to go for whatever suits you the most. I’d highly suggest going to open days and having a look and drawing a comparison (both the living side and the prices) and check out the website and virtual tours to see them side by side and the lists of what’s included in each.

Let me know if there’s anything else I can help with 🙂

Hi Eleanor,

Thank you for your answer! I just have two more questions:

-Are the lectures/classes in the old college?

-Is it possible to ask for catering even when you're in an accommodation that doesn't offer it?

Thank you!
