The Student Room Group

no accomodation offer or login detail emails

i have not heard from my preliminary college at all, and i have not heard anything about an accommodation offer or anything

also it seems ridiculous that when they allocate preliminary colleges they dont consider whether you were firm or insurance, but they do if they are reallocating you

Neither have I, and they haven’t responded to my emails so as an international student im a bit worried. Let me know if they get back to you

Hiya,

I'm so sorry to hear that, to my knowledge, emails are still being sent out to students and there have been some delays but I would definitely advise reaching out to the allocation and accommodation team and your preliminary college, you can contact them through here The Accommodation and Allocations Office - Durham University

As for login details, there have been a few delays in issuing them to students so you're not the only one, I would suggest checking your junk and spam folder in case it was lost there and contacting IT and student registry 🙂

I hope this helps and can be resolved soon!

We haven’t heard, and a few people on other threads saying they haven’t either, so be reassured you’re not the only ones, but this waiting is so stressful. On another thread someone was told that we should all hear by Friday 6th. Fingers crossed that we do.
We are in the same position, as it seems many are according to various forms and group chats. It was my daughter’s firm choice and she met her offer.

Those still waiting seem to be a mix of some with firm offers, some insurance, some who had reviews of marking, I am hoping that she is not being reallocated, as in theory she meets the highest priority to stay in her provisional college.

So far all she has had was the green tick on UCAS and an email from the faculty to choose her modules yesterday, but nothing else at all so she can’t even log in and do that.

Absolutely same situation here with our son. Very stressful!

wondering if you've been given out a college yet? im still waiting, not sure if I should be trying to get in touch a this point but im getting slightly impatient
We’ve heard nothing at all yet either I’m afraid. On another thread someone was told all accommodation offers should be out by tomorrow. I think we’re going to give it until tomorrow and then try and contact them again.
I have contacted them several times and rather than giving any updates, they just say to wait. It’s getting beyond a joke now quite frankly.

Stephenson, knew nothing about it but seems nice enough! very different to St Johns which I had originally hahaha
Sorry for all the questions. Did you get told before that that you had been reallocated?

Hope you can start to enjoy the experience of getting ready for Uni now you know you have a college!

That's great to hear, congratulations. Hopefully we hear very soon too!
Still no offer here, very very panicked son and parents. Is anyone else waiting? Did anyone else also get told the 16th?
