Cardiff University DTH Offer Holders

Hey,

Starting this thread to hopefully connect with other offer holders at Cardiff for DTH.

I have a conditional offer for DH and DTH, but chose DTH as my firm choice!

Congratulations to everyone in advance!

Well done on getting your offer! Hopefully other DTH offer holders find this thread, but in the meantime, if you had any questions about the uni, feel free to ask! :biggrin:

Thank you!

At the moment I’m finding the student finance and halls quite confusing at the moment! But it’s just a long process’s but I’m excited!

Yeah I understand, these things can seem overwhelming, but don't worry!
Here are some basics of each, then let us know if you need any specifics.

Student Finance
Definitely call or read more info directly from Student Finance, (the student finance group you go with depends on where you currently live).

Tuition Fee Loan: Covers the cost of your course (paid directly to your university).

Maintenance Loan: Helps with living costs like rent, food, travel. The amount depends on your household income and where you’ll study (living at home or away).

You might also be eligible for extra support (e.g., if you have a disability, child, or low income).

You’ll need to set up an online account and fill in your personal details, and request the amount you might want - also dependent on how much you might be eligible for

You start repaying only once you’ve finished your course and are earning above the repayment threshold, they are automatic through your salary


Student Halls

We have 17 overall halls - definitely recommend looking at this booklet, it gives an overview on each accommodation, and a really useful map at the end!

Some key things to consider and key differences between them: Catering options (for uni-provided food or not), Facilities (e.g en-suites), Location (see the map as well to help), Budget.

If you can, and if you haven't already I would recommend coming to one of our open days, where you can visit some of the halls and see the general location - also it's a pretty good day!


Hope this is at least a little helpful!
Is there anything you would like to know more about?
