I changed my mind about living off campus

I had planned to live off campus (at home) but now feel I would like to live in student halls after all. It is already mid September and I am starting my course at UG course at LSE in 10 days’ time - is there any hope/point in registering with the accommodation team? Does it ever happen that people pull out at this late stage? Thanks.

Don't know how likely it is, but you have absolutely nothing to lose, so you should put your name down. LSE has a very high proportion of overseas students so I can imagine some will not end up coming as they have issues with visas, or last minute decide they can't afford it, or decide to go to another country etc.
Worth a try, places do become available. You may have to wait though.

Thanks for the replies. I am pleased to say that I have already managed to secure accommodation of my first choice.

Praise be to God. Prayers answered. 🙏
