Residence Assignments

Postby laura on Tue Apr 25, 2006 10:29 am

Just out of curiosity, as I realize Orientation is a very long way away, can anyone give me an estimate as to when new students generally receive their housing assignments for the year?

Thanks!

I got mine when my offer become unconditional; it arrived in late August, after I passed my A-Levels.

Hope that helps!

Depends on your offer. If you got an unconditional and your accommodation form is in, then replies come around June if i remember rightly. If your conditional, then see above post.

I got mine just after results day! Ah.. brings back memories of running around filling in countless forms, sorting out bank accounts, accomidation, UCAS. Reading Rules and contracts and Student loans.

The hall confirmation letter will well you if you have a single or a shared room, but I'm pretty sure they don't tell you anything about your roommate - you just meet them when you move in.

I'm assuming that you are american as finding out about your roommate is normal, but here it doesnt happen. I dont know, it could be a privacy issue

My offer was unconditional but I'm an American, so I wonder if the two cancel out.
In any case, no matter where I am, I'll be moving in on September 16th. I can't wait.

You know nothing about your room-mate - other than the assumption that they will be of the same gender - until you arrive on the first day.

I'm in the exact same boat. I hate waiting, especially since all my friends are getting their university e-mail accounts and finding out what their accomodations are going to be. Oh well, I was the first of all of them to find out where I was going, so I guess I can't complain too loudly.

As it gets closer to September folk usually start to post threads in search of their room mates. Check out your hall website and there is ususally a forum which people try to find their room mate. Good luck!
