I will not defer.. we're talking about september guys uni is not starting any soon. The situation will necessarily get better in 4 months, obviously there will be measures for prevention, but personally I dont think deferring is the right choice.. at least for me

It sucks that first years won't get freshers or any introduction to typical uni life in the midst of all this... not that freshers is the most important thing during this pandemic but it still is a bummer

Maybe, maybe not. With so much uncertainty, I think we'll just have to wait and see as to how everything turns out. Hoping for the best.

yeah I know, but lets be optimistic, it won't necessarily go like this. We dont know how things will evolve in 4 months, it's a bunch of time. Im sure things will get better. Now we're in the most critical phase of the pandemic, but in september we won't, so we should wait and see

No thye've only just developed it, but it'll take months for them to test and trial it and make sure it's not harmful, and the process repeats for months until at least middle of next year. By then cases will have decreased a lot more because we're not relying on a vaccine now to cure people - they're being treated with antiviral medication now and that's working. Vaccination will be used to reduce something like this happening again, but because there's so many cases now and more people are recovering than dying from it, eventually the majority of people will be immune to it
I’ve got an offer for neuroscience and psychology but I was wondering how I could change careers to do law

ngl i don't think freshers in london universities are the same as other universities because you aren't just surrounded by universities students when you go out, there are like other old people there too - at least thats what my sister told me and she goes to UCL

Anyone else get a reduced offer for International Relations (before corona)? Entry requirements are A*AA but got given AAB. Is this common?

Yes that true, I guess that’s the trade-off for attending a city university rather than campus universities. But I still think freshers week is a great opportunity to meet new ppl and it’s a bummer that first years won’t be able to experience it. I’m sure KCL will figure out an alternative tho
For those who booked and been on the website, has there been Moonraker Point ensuite rooms available?

Try to be optimistic. Im sure we will get freshers.. just let the pandemic do its course. In 4 months things will change and the situation will get better. Normality will come again, just with a few security measures. Hopefully we will be able to celebrate together!

The ULife won't be the same as the campus uni
