Aberdeen - 2010

I only know about it because all Scottish unis do it, otherwise I would have been quite oblivious.

What literature? I just firmed today so is there literature on its way or should I already have it ?

I'm not sure if you get it sent, but I got it from the opening event before Christmas. It was bundled with the prospectus: 'The Difference'. So you've probably got it too.

It has a whole section on the 'Enhanced Study' and I didn't think to read it. It went in my bag and never left there

Now that I've read it, I'm actually impressed. a) I can't believe I missed this, and, b) I'm surprised the English/NI/Welsh Uni's don't do something like this, it could be really useful for everyone to have done something like this.

I don't have this. I don't think I have this. I probably have this and have misplaced it... Crap.

It's on the web too: http://www.abdn.ac.uk/documents/crefBrochure.pdf

OK. Please tell me if I'm worrying for the sake of worrying, but I see ABDN's accommodation portal still says it's too early to book. But Unite are allowing bookings for NCC? How does that work?

I don't want to miss out, and I'm tempted to go ahead and see what happens and see if it'll let me book.

Edit: 'An application using this UCAS reference has already been submitted, if you wish to make any changes to your appication please contact the accommodation office' - I need to breathe.

Hows the gay scene in Aberdeen?? I just firmed for primary ed!

Errrm. How you doing?

yeah im curious also, or do we wait for the package? What does NCC stand for?

I just firmed my unconditional last week and just came back from aberdeen yesterday, after looking at the halls and i have say that i very much like New Carnegie, although the woman said it was self catered. Moreover, I also a look at the catered accom in crombie/johnston and it was not at new and clean as new carnegie IMO.

Is New Carnegie part of North Court or South House or is that a different sector of hillhead? lol pardon my ignorance!

lol im good cheers, you going to aberdeen? know anything about the gay scene?

I'm going to ABDN

I don't however () know anything about the G-scene. It'll be interesting to explore and find out..

Nice what are you studying? im not really out, but plan to come out in uni. dont know what past friends would think. Same id like to explore

I'm taking English literature and history

Oooh. It'll be fine It doesn't matter what your friends will think, if they're true friends, it will not matter. If they have a problem, then they're not worth knowing! Besides, you'll be able to make loads of new friends at ABDN!

I've visited ABDN a couple of times, but never explored properly before. So freshers will most likely be a blast!

hmm i guess your right but people that talk behind my back etc, still not ready for that. i know there is a gay society, is it still active?

Ooh. I get what you mean.

I'm not sure about the Gay SOC. But the Buddhist SOC seems like fun.

When do i need to apply for accommodation????
