what about mixed accommodation?

Hi!
I just applied for Marris and Windsor Terrace, mixed accommodations. I am an exchange student will stay in Newcastle for one year.
Have no ideas how mixed accommodation will be like. Any help? Thanks :p:

You'll be living with girls and boys of a similar age, they'll be about 4-7 of you in a flat. Lets say there is 5 in a flat - the 5 of you will share kitchen facilities and a living room and a bathroom (unless you have applied for en-suit accomodation which will mean you will have a private shower, wash basin and toilet for your own use). You have your own room all to yourself with a bed in it and as i said before, if you applied for en-suit accomodation your bathroom will be joint onto this.

You'll probably be slotted with other internationals.

Things should be fine. It may get a bit dirty at times, but do not worry.

Oh yeah Tabris is right, did you put anything down about religious or gender preference on your application form?

Thanks a lot. I didn't write down any special preference, just "mixed accommodation".
Just interested in what it will be like. I am single child at home. Never experienced living with so many people with different genders before. Haha~ :biggrin:

It will certainly be a new experience for you. First night you'll probably think 'why did I do this?' and a few days later you'll be having a great time and enjoying every second of it :smile:
