UCLan foundation year, live at home or accommodations?

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone lived at home while studying foundation year? I don't want to pay for and live in accommodations until I have started my 1st year, when my course starts to get more intense. As a foundation course I expect it to be a bit lax so maybe I can afford time to commute? The commute is a 1hour bus journey, is that feasible?

Hi there!
I lived at home during my foundation year (mine was in medical sciences) and then only moved out in my 3rd year! Commuting was absolutely fine for me, the only difficulty I found was if I wanted to go to social events in the evening it took a bit more effort / planning to get there!
I hope this helps! If you would like to show your support, please consider leaving us your vote for Best Official Rep here: TSR Community Awards 2023: Best Official Rep Award - VOTING NOW OPEN - The Student Room

What was your timetable like for foundation year?

Hi there!
I did my foundation year 5 years ago now some things may have changed so please bare this in mind! I had around 3 days a week in classes for my foundation year and usually had 2-3 classes a day. This can change week on week and this is just to give you an idea!
I hope this helps,
Rebecca

Alright thank you, I plan on asking students and staff when I attend UCLan's offer holder day. One more question, how long was your commute time and did you use public transport or drive?
