I Need Halls...

I've just got my offer from the London Met, but no one told us we had to apply for halls before 8th August.
I've got the application form, which I'm taking with me to the open day on weds, but I'm still worried about not getting accom.
Has anyone else had problems with late accom applications or anything similar? and how did you sort it?

if you arent and explain to them you didnt know, im sure they could find a room for you, as you'd be preference student
I've met a girl on a student site who's goin to the same uni, same campus - I have her floor in her accom should I need it lol Bless her...
It's either that, or private rented :S which I don't want!
Gonna have to send of the application form anyway and keep my fingers crossed..

T'missus didn't get halls, she was placed in a flat in the main student area of Newcastle.
Even if the uni don't have housing stock, they will help you find accomodation.
Why not?
Plus, after watching that programme about the 'Camden Ripper' there's no way I'm living on my own in london!!

Yeh, I was like that. I wanted the 'halls' life but hey, you can't have everything. Plus, I'm told bad things about halls! (yes, I do realise I'm just trying to make myself not want to live in halls).
You wouldn't necessarily be on your own, I'm living with 3 others.
It shouldn't be too big a problem - you won't be the only person in this situation, so they'll have a system for dealing with it. Just have faith
Me, mum and dad got in the car, travelled all the way down to Aldgate for the London Met Tour - to find that it had been cancelled 2 weeks prior! so, we thought we should go and speak to 'accomodation' down the road..
We took a walk, went into the office and were told that we were on the waiting list for halls, then directed to the computer with 'private rented accomodation' on the screen.
I burst out crying... a phonecall was made to the Manager of halls, and an appointment to view a room was made...
Half an hour and a 10 quid taxi later - I have a room in halls!!!
Yay! Ilora x
