!KCL Champion Hill

I have just been offered accommodation for KCL Champion Hill, just curious if anyone else has too? I'm located on Strand so its quite for away - this is the only thing that worries me though as the accommodation itself is so nice

Hi I haven't heard back yet as I only just put in my accommodation application. Ideally I want Stamford Street or Great Dover Street, just because Champion Hill is much further out then I would like and I'm also going to be going to Uni at the Strand. I just wondered what other accommodation you put down and how long it took to receive a reply ?

hii!! i wanted SS or GDS too, especially because i'm located on Strand. i put down SS, GDS and Champion hill as those were the only ones within my budget. it did not take long for them to reply either, it was just over 2 weeks. i was thinking of declining the offer for champion hill, but there is an overground station 2 minutes away that only takes 10 mins to get to Strand, so realistically, its not much different than being at Stamford Street or GDS.

If you decline, can you reapply?

Hi, I know it’s late, but I will also live in Champion Hill and study on Strand and I’d really like to get to know anyone in the same situation (since I don’t have Facebook)

That's happened to a lot of people.... I think there was an induction and book in arrival thing that had to be done by a certain deadline and if people didn't do it, they were told their contracts had been cancelled. So many people didn't even know this until last week, the communication from their side hasn't been that great apparently

Ah, I’m sorry but I’m international and I can’t risk finding myself without a place, I’m really sorry and I hope you sort it out

It’s OK, I find an apartment, but it still too far for me, so I think maybe someone don’t want to stay at Champion hill, and came here to find some info. Thx anyway.

Hi,
I am a postgraduate student with a room at Orchard Lisle, right next to Guy's campus and 30 minutes walk to Strand. It is a 51 week contract for a non-ensuite room (4 people, 1 shower, 2 toilets, 2 sinks). I would really like to swap to Champion Hill, so if anyone is interested in a room right next to London Bridge, please contact me!
