Can’t wait to start in September! Also a psychology student but I decided to go with private accommodation because I found it to be better location wise for work and a bit easier on the finances too since where I will be working is a 5 minute walk and I can attempt to cycle most days if we have in person learning xD

would you say mayflower is quite social?? I want to stay at Wessex lane or glen eyre but my course is at WSA lol so I think the commute would be too long:(

mayflower is definitely very social but more in the clubbing/drinking way if that makes sense!

@kimoonjang1133 2 года назад

Could you show me the flat having 2 rooms of city gateway of southampton uni?

@eces8458 2 года назад

Thank you for your beneficial video. Do you think ensuite room in Citygateway or ensuite room in Glen Eyre is more suitable for postgraduate students? Actually i would like to have quiet room but social environment at the same time. I suspect that Glen Eyre will be noisier than City Gateway but more social and have common study room and computer room which are City Gateway doesn’t have.

@saskiahdlt 2 года назад

I think Glen Eyre would be better! I know city gateway is specifically for postgrads but it’s more expensive and worse in terms of location. You could suggest a quiet flat within Glen so you then get some quiet but within a more social environment

hiii! i've also applied to southampton for psychology but my predicted ib points are 31 and the requirement is 34... as someone on the course, do you think it's still possible that i'll get an offer? also, if i don't get one- is it likely for there to be psychology places available through clearing? :))

@saskiahdlt Год назад

definitely a chance of an offer! they do reduced offers all the time and some people with lower predictions get offers too! in terms of clearing i dont think there are many places but they sometimes still acccept you even if you dont meet the offer

@rohithkrishnan.r4678 2 года назад

hello there, thanks for the tips. I have some doubts regarding the payment in Wessex lane. Did you make payment of rent altogether at the beginning or did you pay monthly? Is it possible to book your spot online?, because I am planning to apply to Southampton University for the September intake next year.

@saskiahdlt 2 года назад

hi so you pay termly, so it alligns with the student loan coming in. so mine came out october, january and april ish time. i applied online and then they cpnfirm your place after results day has happened but you can;t normally apply unil feb/march time

I'm thinking about this university but live about 2 hours away so I would have to get closer accommodation but my family is not the wealthiest. What would you recommend in my situation.

@saskiahdlt 3 года назад

if your family aren't the wealthiest you should get a good student loan, this should then cover accommodation. but if you still want cheap accommodation, shared bathrooms are perfectly fine (shared and self catered would be the cheapest type)

Hii, thankss for this video!!! I'll study English BA and I think I'm gonna be at the Avenue campus and I am trying to decide whether to apply for Glen or Wessex. I've read that they're both pretty social but I don't know which one is closer to bars and clubs. Do you have any recommendation?

Glen will be closer to Avenue campus and I think they’re probably the same distance from bars etc I think! Wessex is maybe slightly closer

@@ZaidKhan-uc9jh so basically there are quite a few flats for two people in southampton, some closer to the city and some closer to the university. these are for around £800-£1000 per month which is not including bills etc. i am not sure when you would need to start sorting this out though. websites like zoopla and right move are good for looking for flats or houses for the two of you.

@saskiahdlt 3 года назад

chamberlain is just the most expensive accommodation and ends up with people there who have their parents paying for things and are rich rich. some people are max loan students so it depends it’s just generally quite posh
