is anyone here still waiting for an offer for plas gwyn accommodation? i've heard nothing from them and even emailed but no response :/

There's no rooms left in Plas Gwyn, I'm in a group chat on WhatsApp, and someone who rung the accommodation team advised them that Plas Gwyn is full

also i thought they had guaranteed accommodation for first years... ugh this sucks, it's too late to get any other accommodation in cardiff too isn't it? guess i'm taking a gap year.

Yes seriously, a few people said it in the group, what other accommodations did you put down on your 6 choices? As they will try to get your others. It will either be North Court, Ty Pont Haern, Black Weir or Cyncoed. I know that back in July they were having technical issues, which caused a backlog.

You will still be guaranteed halls, there wasn't just Plas Gwyn on offer

I'm an undergraduate student starting this year, and they have been getting emails from so many that is probably why you haven't found from them, maybe. I just wanted to make sure to let you know.
