No news yet. I keep checking but no spare places are released. I'm still no sure where to stay yet. Have you finished your exam? Not me! Just want to focus on the exam first and think about that later.

I found available room in Scape website. Maybe we can book from there too? A bit more expensive though.

I heard that there will be, even after the term starts, as not all conditional offers can meet the conditions. Just no idea how long we have to wait, or if we should take the risk to wait.

I've been looking at it too...Hopefully there will be some rooms left after my exams. I cannot do two things at once (sigh)

the main problem i would say about booking privately is that they only offer 51-week contract, which is a whole year and that means i simply wasting money for more than two months...and £350 a week HMMMMMMMMM

I understand that. That was what I struggled earlier too. I did check with them their teams and see if I can still hold it and wish for luck from KCL. You may think about that. But I think you can still wait for at least 6/6 (deadline for guarantee accommodation)
