Yah i've been looking at places and I feel like the student accom. is really expensive for what you get. There are some really nice house / flat shares for cheaper that I would much rather go for 🙂. It gets significantly cheaper the more people you share with but even living alone I think it's still a better fit for me personally.
omg so valid, some of the accom is insanely expensive. i went to newcastle yesterday and i thought jesmond road west was pretty nice considering its the cheapest one so maybe thinking that. just gonna see how it goes when accom opens, but yeah there are so many decent houses/ flats out there

Firmed A101! See you all in September— maybe??? Anyone else with conditional offers pending results that have already been completed/sent? Assuming it’s also until the occupational health survey and DBS is done…

Good to know it's not just me cos I also uploaded my degree documents and it's still conditional! You must be right, it'll probably change after we complete the other requirements.

My offer got changed to unconditional on UCAS this week even though I haven't received anything regarding the DBS / occupational health questionnaire.

Only uploaded the degree documents.

Not sure when we should expect to receive DBS / Occupational health questionnaire...

I did firm quite early, at least a month ago. Maybe that's why.

Yes I would be interested in a house share in Jesmond, seems like a much better option than the accommodation through the uni!!

Hi guys! Congrats on your offers! We are looking for a tenancy replacement in my house share next year due to a change in circumstances. I am third year med as well as my flatmate and thought it might be a good idea to ask if anyone is looking for anywhere to stay! Please message me if you want more details! The house ages are 21, 22 and 23 with a split of one male and two females. Thanks guys!

I would also potentially be keen. Have firmed Newcastle, but waiting on my current degree results next week before I'll know for certain if I'll meet me conditions.

Nope. Does yours also say sign in/you don't have permission to view it?
