Ijeawele: My bro is going to Edinburgh Napier University. Msc Marketing.. So which varsity in Edinburgh are you going and which course?..

salsera: @darkchild
food - little things like plantain chips,indomie noodles Lol
I for instance I am lactose intolerant so I packed plenty Peak milk powder cos thats what works for me


And though you can always buy clothes here there is no point wasting money on staples like jeans

Dont stress over it jare - keep it light, you can find almost everything in the UK apart from good suya

EmmaIK:

Hello. I'm goin to uni of Edinburgh. Are u using private accommodation or skool hostel?

johnwisdom10: tbaba please can u reply me....

ikcbn: @Darkchild,FutureDon,Penfold and those heading 2 Sheffield

Sup wit accommodation? I intend doing private bt would luv 2 join up wit anyone frm this forum who also wants 2 do private so we could b together ova dia in UK and watch each others back and get 2 overcome ϑaτ̅ spirit of loneliness. More especially, d̶̲̥̅̊ rent would b more economical 4 us. Plz any interested individual should link me up

Dharkchild:

I would be going private bro, but ve been speaking with a landlord in Sheffield and would meet him for viewing when I get there so if 'm okay with it I would sign up the contract.

I would keep you posted which ever way it goes, but it would be cool if you could actually team up with someone to get an apartment. Lots of private apartment are actually available for rent within walking distance from school and done even prefer renting it to a group of students as opposed to individuals.

Yes its a good idea but never sign group tenancy agreement, always insist on signing individual agreement.

Dharkchild:

Ooh, thanks Alot. Noted

Macheus: Hi all,its unfortunate I've not got any one coming to my school,anyway hope am gonna get one soon! Mine is ACCA & MBA in London School of Business and Finance,Manchester campus. Let's go all !!

ikcbn:

Tanx bro bt plz do not fail 2 get back 2 me after viewing d̶̲̥̅̊ room wen U̶̲̥̅̊ get there cos there might b an empty room there that would interest me. I would probably b arriving late towards d̶̲̥̅̊ end of sept. So do keep me posted beta still link me up wit d̶̲̥̅̊ landlord via email so i could talk 2 him and make reservations if nececessary or perphaps he could help me secure one or link me wit one of his colleagues
Tanx 4 d̶̲̥̅̊ help.

FutureDon:

I would def be doing private too. No arrangement yet, not until I get to Sheffield.

justwise:

The prob with group tenancy agreement is....if one person moves out then the rest will have to pay for the empty room, but if its individual then the landlord will have to look for somebody to take up the room.

Dharkchild: By any coincidence, is anyone travelling to Manchester via klm on the 11th?

Dharkchild:

Aiight bro. PS don't make any payment or sign a contract till you have seen the property yourself. I learnt that from here.

I took a risk by making a deposit of 200 pounds(50k) to secure the accommodation I wanted based on a friends recommendation, but if eventually I do not like the apartment then I have to forfeit my money. That's not the kind of risk I would want to take another time, but we keep learning

I would send you some website where you could search for apartment and arrange for viewing when you get to Sheffield. I would also try to view done apartment when I get there, but remember taste differs and no contracts or financial commitment except you are willing to bear the consequences if any

Dharkchild:

didn't think of this, thanks for pointing it out. Those going for private accommodation pls take note. I also learnt it is better to take accommodation with bills inclusive rather than paying bills every month.
