JP Morgan Think Ahead Summer School 2023

Is anyone else doing this? I don’t live near enough to commute each day by train. What are you guys doing about accommodation?

My son is doing this course too.

I have contacted the University of Bournemouth accommodation dept and they have sent a list of contacts for the various halls of residence. They said that they may rent out rooms. I was going to take a look at a map to see which is closest and try and book him a room there.

Here's the list of halls with contact details:

Honestly thank you so much, you’re a lifesaver. I was looking at Air B&Bs (there’s quite a few that are close) but even the cheapest seemed rather pricy. Will get contacting! Cheers again

Have you guys got the accomodation?

Ended up finding a cheap AirBnB that isn’t too far so all good in the end. You?

Hey! Congratulations to your son for getting a place! I don’t know if you’re asking about the accommodation (I stayed in an Air BnB nearby; most people did the same or had a hotel room) or the experience itself, but if you mean the work experience then I can say that it was amazing! Intimidating as anything to start with, but they encourage creativity and a collaborative mindset and the challenge is fun rather than scary.

Thanks for your reply, did you do the work experience or the summer school ?

I did the Think Ahead week over the summer!

Where was it located, was it at the Talbot campus ? Thanks for your help.
