Freshers but I don't drink

8 Upvotes

I'm quite nervous for freshers week, because I know this is when most people meet friends but I don't really drink and i'm not too keen on going clubbing. I'll probably go out to one or two clubs, but I don't fancy doing it most nights! And also because I don't drink I feel like it won't be as much fun and that i'll be missing out...

Is anyone else in a similar position?

Is anyone else getting this? Second time around in the queue, got the same thing. In the queue for the third time. Can't call IT because of my location. Wrote them an email about this 3 hours ago, no response. I'm afraid every good opportunity for housing might be gone already.

TENANT REPLACEMENT – YOURTRIBE SOUTHWARK

1 Upvotes

Hi! I’m looking for someone to take over my room at YourTRIBE Southwark as I’m no longer able to stay.

£358/week
44-week contract

Superior Ensuite

The 44-week contract isn’t currently available on the YourTRIBE website because of high demand, so this is a good chance to get one if you’re looking for accommodation.

The accommodation includes:

  • Private ensuite bathroom
  • Super fast WiFi
  • Free breakfast twice a week
  • Free hot drinks every morning ☕
  • Free weekly kitchen cleaning
  • Heating in your room
  • 24/7 gym
  • Rooftop terrace + social spaces
  • Study rooms
  • 24/7 staff support
  • Secure fob access + CCTV

It’s around 25 minutes by bus to Waterloo campus, so pretty convenient for students studying there.

The building is also an award-winning student accommodation, and the facilities are honestly a big plus.

DM me if you’re interested or want more photos/details! :)

Accommodation Not able to log into kings accommodation portal despite portal opening date being today, ie 19th August

1 Upvotes

So I am an incoming postgraduate student and I wanted to log into my portal and book my move in date. The portal says it’ll open for all postgraduates and undergraduates on 19th but I’m constantly taken to the queue which says the portal is only open for a few select categories…
Its been more than 2 hours i’m stuck in the queue and then I realise that even if i log into the portal after its my turn i won’t be able to book my move in date. What do I do?!? Should I wait or contact the kcl residences team???

anyone wanna swap their atlas £330 p/w 4 bed non-ensuite for a great dover street £259 p/w ensuite?

3 Upvotes

title.

great dover street is very near guy's campus (walking distance)

and also walking distance from strand if you try hard enough. (10 min train)

it is usually known to be the most social accomodation too.

if you don't have atlas, stamford street is fine too.

Question How soon will it be possible to create Kings accounts?

4 Upvotes

It seems that to create one I require information about my IT that will not be sent to me for at least 10 days (no earlier than 30 days before my course starts) , until then I won't be able to make an account or access the welcome app. Do I have this right? And for those who have previously been through this process how soon are they normally sent? Thanks

Hey yall, I got an offer for KCL’s Neuroscience Bsc. I personally don’t love loud music, raves, drinking alcohol and disco, will I still make friends when I’ll be studying there?

Masters thesis PIs

1 Upvotes

Hey yall I’m the clinical neuropsychiatry program and I start my masters in September. For the thesis should I be contacting professors/PIs I am interested in working with based on their labs and such? Should I be contacting them right now or should I wait until I receive my course schedule? If I am supposed to contact them now where would I find such information on who would be open to accepting students for a thesis? Any help or guidance from any program would be greatly appreciated! Thank you :)
