I got a welcome pack this morning :smile: it just had the student handbook, registration details and whatnot in. I think the departmental stuff comes separately?

Oooh, Mason! Fancy! :biggrin:
Tell me about it! I'm not a very patient person! I just want to know what's going on! They could atleast have sent out a generic email saying what we are going to receive, and roughly when, just to put people's minds at rest!



Lol yeah, cant wait to move in! Which one are you in?
Oh btw, you know on the freshers fest website, what do they mean by hall timetables coming soon? timetables for what? :confused:

I'm in Shackleton :smile:
I think that the events are done by halls maybe? So the people in Shackleton will be scheduled to do one thing, when Tennis courts are doing something else? I'm not sure, that's just what I thought it meant ...

I want one!!! LOL. Does everyone get a welcome pack, and the stuff from the department whether you are staying at home or in accomodation?

Yeah, paid the deposit. I hope so, I'm starting to worry about not receiving more information.. can only imagine how the people who havent even received an accommodation offer must be feeling! Got an offer for Mason :smile:



I found a time table a bit ago about when the moving in dates are for certain halls... but i can't find it now :eek:

I think so, as it's the student handbook and registration log in whatsits. and the departmental stuff is your reading list etc so I'd hope that you'd get that!!

Is it this http://www.as.bham.ac.uk/studentlife/welcome/induction/index.shtml, and then the links at the bottom for each day?
Right. I am now officially annoyed. I got the grades, I got my confirmation letter from UCAS, but I haven't heard anything from Birmingham (no pack in the post, not even an accommodation offer) and no-one's replied to my emails, and the deadline for accomodation offers is 1st September arrrrgh =/

Same!

Although I don't have to worry about accomodation since I'm doing a gap year.

I haven't received a pack either, what is taking them so long? I received few posts, but nothing relevant apart from confirmation letter

Good!

I'm also doing the same course, but i'm taking a year out. :smile:
For everybody that is interested, I emailed Freshers Fest and they told me that hall timetables will be up by the 10th September.
that's ages away!
but thanks for finding out
:biggrin:
