That’s fab news, well done to your Dd, my Dd is waiting for a call hoping to move from diploma to degree. Fingers crossed we get a call soon x

Hope you hear soon Newbe2018 x

Not been on this site for a while but I wanted to wish everyones DC all the best in getting a place and accommodation in the coming weeks.

Thanks newbe2018, hope your dd hears soon, is she still going to go on the diploma?

Whoop whoop!!! The call came in today!!!! Dd offered degree course, Yes she would have still gone on the diploma with full dada, but now she’s got the degree and I know she’s applied for student finance would think the dada will go back in the pot for someone, Dd just over the moon! Now to sort accommodation, looking for house shares preferably within walking distance, if anyone else is looking too, please pm me xx

Yippee! Newbe2018. So pleased for you xx

Thanks Marissa xxx

Oh! Fantastic news Newbe2018!

Don’t know about you (and others!) but accommodation hunting is turning out to be just about as stressful as auditioning!

Can say that again, I’ve found a few things, and I’ve registered with some estate agents, but would be better to get a couple together and consider a house share rather than just room.

That's fantastic news newbie2018, so happy your dd has now got the degree offer

I must admit I don’t think I could cope with that as well, luckily we live close to college so DD staying at home

Hi , I know it is difficult because your top priority is to just get a room sorted but do please take time to get to know the people you are moving in with as my daughter has had a horrendous year with her housemates , she is moving in 2 weeks to another place but being with nice , civil , supported people is a god send when you are away from home ! There is a fb group which most students use to advertise any rooms going , Try to get added to that
Best of luck everyone , can’t believe My dd is nearly at the end of her 1 st year , Looking forward to the show on Saturday !

Thank you! It’s such a worry, isn’t it?! My DD has been chatting to a girl on their FB page, who seems lovely, but you never know, do you?! Definitely going to just go for a years maximum tenancy to begin with, then at least they have the option to ‘re-group’ if things don’t work out - or they form different friendships!

Hope your DD’s show goes well! x

Aw fab news on getting the degree course!

Just a heads up. For Bird They can get a free bus pass through TFL as they will be living in a London borough so don’t discount a small bus ride away.
I had the mad scramble to find landlord accomadtion for my DD and one lovely lady explained it to me as I was insisting it had to be walking distance for cost as well as convienance!
Good luck on finding somewhere. I think I got lucky but I had to accept without visiting the property to make sure she got a room!
