I studied at Southampton from 1979-1982 (yes, that long ago!) and was in Connaught Hall my first 2 years. Your video certainly brings back some memories!
@@Mehmet-kv2vd Oh yeah, the website prices are wrong, when you click apply it charges you extra and shows you a couple different rooms that aren’t on the website
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
@@maylol3620 I didn’t get into Southampton, so I can’t give any recommendations, sorry. I was planning to stay in Mercury Point for 119 a week and from what I heard it’s okay for the price
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.
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
This was posted two years ago, but stil relevant and very helpful thank you. You said glen, wessex and mayfower are social, do you know which of these have more international students, to meet new people from different cultures:)
I just want my own bathroom lol, that's it. I couldn't care less if I have to sleep on the floor XD. I am thinking of firming southhampton, but I am still not sure :/
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:(
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.
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
@@saskiahdlt I wanted to know about one more thing. Are there any restrictions for students in wessex lane hall? are there any time limits for students to enter the halls? I want to know if there are any restrictions that may affect the part time jobs.
@@rohithkrishnan.r4678 So you will pay for a full contract of however many weeks (36,38,40,45) etc and then you can come and go as you please. So you can go home for weekends and don’t have to be in halls. Hope that answers the question
I’m a bit confused about why chamberlain is full of the rich kids when it’s is similarly priced to Wessex. £15 a week difference. (I’m not in chamberlain but was considering it, don’t want to be surrounded by posh people tho lol)
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
hello, I got an offer letter from UoSoton Business School today for my Master's!! Would you be kind enough to shed some light upon the range between which I can get a shared student accommodation with my friend(who also got an offer letter) ? thanks in anticipation.
im sorry im not sure what you mean. do you mean private accommodation or a flat you can share with a friend? in shared you would be with other students too or do you just want to be with your one friend?
@@saskiahdlt Hi, I m sorry for not being clear in my approach. What I meant was sharing a private flat w a friend who is also coming from my home country since he got an offer letter too! kindly explain the accommodation scenario for the two of us !!
@@fishandchipsonthego 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.
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.
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)
Thank you for this video! I recently received an Unconditional Offer from Southampton and I still have no clue where I should go since this is my first time moving abroad and looking for uni accommodation D:
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? :))
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
@@saskiahdlt wouldn’t that leave me pretty isolated from other students? Also Is it not expensive? It’s fine if u don’t answer lol, ik u probs have better things to do
@@anniemcmahon6778 i don’t think it would leave you isolated at all there will still be lots of uni students there! it’s also sometimes more expensive but it’s still an option if there is nothing elsen
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?
I personally didn’t mine mixed gender! I think it’s good to have a mix! And my quiet flat was definitely TOO quiet! I would have preferred a normal flat and just told people to not be loud!
@@saskiahdlt maybe they said so to get people to try and get their choices in early. I don’t want to be rushed & need to discuss with my parents who are slowly but surely adjusting to the idea of me moving & how SF actually works.
yep! are you going to be catered then if you're in connaught? the buildings are nice and it's quite social just maybe not so much as wessex as it's not quite as large!
Omgg I just found you again :D I used to watch you on TikTok all the time before I deleted it and I tried to look for your Instagram but I couldn’t remember your name lol

Just got an offer for monte 3!!! I’ll be at avenue campus tho which is a bit far but I’m sure it’ll work out ok
I studied at Southampton from 1979-1982 (yes, that long ago!) and was in Connaught Hall my first 2 years. Your video certainly brings back some memories!
Great video saskia! See you in Southampton yay
Thanks for this, it was hard to decide and the prices actually went up but this is still very helpful
wait are my prices not right anymore?
@@saskiahdlt yhh the rooms went up like £5 a week, and they’ve took one of mayflower halls off and added a new one for Wessex
man that is wild why do the uni want to ruin my TH-cam videos
The webpage of accommodation is not up to date, isn't it ? I think, maybe it will be updated in 3&4 weeks.
@@Mehmet-kv2vd Oh yeah, the website prices are wrong, when you click apply it charges you extra and shows you a couple different rooms that aren’t on the website
Thank you for making the video about accomodation, i just got the offering last month and scholarship from government 😍.
Thankyou so much for the video I couldn’t find information anywhere it helped alot
Glad it helped
At 4:49 You said £168 but on the screen £181. Which one is correct ?
the prices went up in the last week
meant £168 but the prices have gone up and changed anyway!
@@saskiahdlt yes unfortunately, I have just learnt it.
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
best of luck to you! if you have any q's about psychology just let me know :)
Hi! Which one did you choose? Please let me know, I will go next year and I would like to have recommendations :) I will appreciate it!
@@maylol3620 I didn’t get into Southampton, so I can’t give any recommendations, sorry. I was planning to stay in Mercury Point for 119 a week and from what I heard it’s okay for the price
This was really helpful, thanks :)
when you made this video literally a week ago and the prices already changed??? thanks soton ur ruining my TH-cam
The rate may be changed but your video is very informative. if we choose a part catered option, do they have a vegetarian option available in meal?
@@yashshrivastava4362 they definitely will

hmm, there was definitely a lot of international students in wessex but as i wasn't in the other two im not really sure sorry!
I just want my own bathroom lol, that's it. I couldn't care less if I have to sleep on the floor XD. I am thinking of firming southhampton, but I am still not sure :/
if you have any questions about the uni or accommodation to help you decide message me on instagram!
Loool same, all the suites have a shared bathroom :(
@@ariamaalin9861Did you end up getting in? I just got in for the upcoming year
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!
which is nearest and best for Avenue

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)
Look at green wood court they have rooms as cheap as 78 pounds a week
Could you show me the flat having 2 rooms of city gateway of southampton uni?
What do they feed you when you are part-catered? Do you choose or how does it work exactly? Is there halal food?
I'm not sure but I assume there is a menu with 2 or 3 options and I again assume there would be halal food but I am not certain!

no city accom?
here's private accom which has city options: th-cam.com/video/yhF_6nsJ4_g/w-d-xo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB

Uh so I just decided not to defer, but I’m super late to accommodation, so there’s like none left, I don’t know what I’m supposed to do????
you can always go for private accommodation!
@@saskiahdlt wouldn’t that leave me pretty isolated from other students? Also Is it not expensive? It’s fine if u don’t answer lol, ik u probs have better things to do

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
@@saskiahdlt thank you soo much!!!! I think then I'll apply for Glen probably if they are otherwise pretty much the same distance.
Which ones would you recommend for a good social life?
Wessex, Glen or Mayflower!
@@saskiahdlt thanks for the reply, does choosing catered or self catered affect your social life???
@@alyafey69 nope not al all!
Hi, I wanted to ask if it's better to be in single-gender accommodation and do you know how quiet the quiet rooms are? Are they too let's say quiet?
I personally didn’t mine mixed gender! I think it’s good to have a mix! And my quiet flat was definitely TOO quiet! I would have preferred a normal flat and just told people to not be loud!
@@saskiahdlt Omg then it must be really quiet coming from a chill looking person. Cheers mate for the answer :)
Hii, do you know why Southampton accom is so expensive???
no idea, think its just because its down south
Is it first come, first served?
nope! i thought it was and was told it was but that was a nice little lie!
@@saskiahdlt maybe they said so to get people to try and get their choices in early. I don’t want to be rushed & need to discuss with my parents who are slowly but surely adjusting to the idea of me moving & how SF actually works.
Which is the most social accommodation?
honestly they are all quite social! i would say mayflower then wessex then glen probably!
Bullshit it’s definitely glen lmao, Wessex and mayflower are too far away
@@ellien-w619 but they’re still social? Wessex is very social and mayflower are rig it in the city so they’re also social
Are u allowed to bring your own TV in your own room?
yes but if you want to use it as a tv you might need to pay for a tv license (not sure on this bit through(
Do you know anything about connaught halls at all? Just accepted an offer there. They are the old buildings near wessex. You probably know that.
yep! are you going to be catered then if you're in connaught? the buildings are nice and it's quite social just maybe not so much as wessex as it's not quite as large!
Still annoyed that the prices have gone up
it sucks!
Do you know much about show flats?
i do not im afraid!
our accommodation used to be this cheap?? 😵💫
ugh throwback to happier times
