Keep an open mind. I haven't done it myself. But someone who has told me that it was very different to what he expected. Not in a bad way: just different.

Excluding going out costs, it's possible to get groceries down to about $30 a week, if not less.

When I moved in last year, they were meant to clean your room before you move in. But what they actually do is they clean the room when the last person moved out. Then they close the door and ignore it. So when you move in, it is 'clean' in the sense that nobody has lived in it since they've...

Maybe try the nunnery? But be prepared: even that might be full this close to start of semester...

agreed.

Re: glee I was more or less in your situation last year. It was pretty bad last year, with offers going out a day before Oweek started. Unilodge wasn't on my preference either, but it was what i got offered. However, I had a fantastic time in a 5 room multishare with some awesome room mates...

live at an uncatered college. ;-) The food really doesn't cost $100 a week. I spend on average $30 a week on food and no, i don't live on mi goreng. imho, it really saves a lot

I lived in Unilodge in my first semester at ANU and I had a great time. To be sure, living at unilodge is not so great in terms of social activity on a large scale, ie. entire college parties etc. However, I made a great close group of friends with the people who I was living with and there were...

For the ppl moving down on 13th/14th... when did your contracts start? Just wondering as my email currently says from 15th Feb. Does that mean you wouldn't be allowed to move in beforehand?

lol...Breezy, how unclean do you mean...? And about the kitchen stuff: surely not everyone would need to bring everything: then you'll end up with 5 lots of everything. Surely you don't need 5 pots, 5 wooden spoons, 5 spatulas, 5 x 2 pans/woks etc in one apartment?

1. They send that form via email. I just got one. 2. Probably send the record of payment and if you're still worried, phone them up. 3. Don't they send you over to the HECS guys when you enrol? 4. Doesn't seem like they've got a list. But then, that may come with the confirmation. ps. Got...

Nah... I found the message from Fri in my junk mail after much searching. It only arrived at 8.30pm though (apparently)... I'm in a 3 share at Davey. But I'm going to try and see if I can get into a 5 share. About scholarships: I got offered the 6.5k one... but they didn't send any...

Finally have an offer: Unilodge though. Ah well. It's what you make of it.

I'm in too. 3 br share at Davey. moving on 13th. hope to see some first years there.

Am I the only offer-less one now? :-(
