Yes, we haven't had any info from uni at all. Unbelievably stressful.

Welcome to Durham.
Yet another reason for NOT applying there.

Is this normal behaviour from Durham? ATM we're seriously considering withdrawing and reapplying elsewhere for 2025

They do not have a great reputation about how they treat applicants - or students.
Ask for deferral to 2025 entry and do some careful thinking about the sort of Uni you want to go to.

Hi,
What college are you in?
I’m looking for accommodation/potential house share ideally with first year fellow St Mary’s student. Same predicament. Seriously considering options - gap year, apply to a different Uni…..
If anybody else is interested in getting together and finding somewhere to live then please get in touch.
Thanks

Hi,
If you can see my reply below you’ll know my son is in same predicament. Looking at all options but if we can get a house share together with fellow first years who are all in same boat without college accommodation then maybe you can all get together?
It’ll be a bit like speed dating but I’m sure we can all work it through.
Good luck whatever you decide to do.
