Woo! Dalton-Ellis! :biggrin: that's where i live! well...I live in Pankhurst Court, the self-catered block across the road, but technicially i'm still a Dalton-Ellis-er..

Yeah, I've got a mate who lives there, and I went up to stay with her last term.
My school stayed at Aston's accommodation when we went on a uni trip. I didn't find it bad...but then I'm not fussy! Everyone else seemed to hate it. But then we were also in the cheapest. The more expensive, en-suite ones looked really nice.

I liked Aston altogether, actually. Like Birmingham, and like how Aston's right in the middle, but still a campus. Qualllliiddyy.

Yep, that's the one. Do you know if it is good or not, in your opinion?

It's very good. The grounds are an English Heritage site, I believe. There's a grotto within the gardens. Difficult to get into though, as obviously it's very popular.

Sharing a bathroom really isn't that bad at all.

You will have to share a bathroom in a shared house in your second year, unless you move out into your own flat. Or find a place with a lot of bathrooms...unlikely.
If you really don't want to just make sure you apply to have en suite accom.

Gonna buy a house and then sell it after uni, hopefully can make some profit. (I've saved up quite a bit, probs just enough to get a 2 bedroom house but still good). Sorry if it seems odd me making a bigdeal over shared bathrooms :smile:

buying a house seems a little OTT to me.

It can be a very wise investment if you've got the money to do it. Plus you don't get any Harry the Bastard-esque landlords if you *are* the landlord.

Buying a house has always been my plan...

Not to get my own bathroom, but not have to worry about 2nd year. I probaly will make a profit onit. If a situation comes where i may go and share, i may do, may not dunno yet.

True, but selling it within 2 years won't make much, if any profit...then again, if you have the money why not.

What to do is, buy a house/apartment for after you leave uni...live of the rent, so you can afford a much better than average student house...yet still have the experience etc. That's my tip of the day folks :wink:

A question, how have you got that kinda money at this age; rich parents would be the obvious reason, but my parents wouldn't trust me with a £100k+...

I have an internet radio station which is drum and bass's leading radio station. Competiting with 1xtra/kiss 100 for various artists, advertisements e.t.c

I have saved over 150K and will probaly sell my radio or hire another manager.
Thats where my money will come from, looked good on my personal statement too i hope, something unique; hopefully gives me a good chance in getting in Bristol or UCL.
