Does anyone know if Essex (Colchester) have opened their accommodation yet? I chose them as my firm choice 3 days ago but the portal isn’t giving me the option to apply for accommodation.
Dear @liquidstate: Applications for new undergraduates for 2019-2020 are now open. Also, as a first-year student, you are guaranteed a room if you apply for accommodation before the 23rd of August. Could you please make sure that you have a PRID (e.g. SMITH12345) in the MyAdmin section of the MyEssex Applicant Portal? This guide can help you with the application process: https://www1.essex.ac.uk/accommodation/documents/accommodation-application-guide.pdf. If you are still experiencing problems, please contact the Student Services Hub ([email protected] / 01206 874000) and they will be more than happy to help you. I hope that helps :-)
