Thats the same at Oxford, It's to do with the enhancing the student experience and allowing peer collaboration over the course (as you mingle with other students in the same study area at differing levels of the course).Originally posted by elephantinc
Some universities expect one to stay on campus for the whole course, for example, Cambridge. I'm not sure why (or if I'll be able to afford it, particularly with two of us going to university at the same time).
I live in quite a rural area and could never commute to a university from where I am now, so, wether I can afford it or not, I'll have to pay for accommodation.Originally posted by gster123
Its a pain but theres a lot of students now looking at courses closer to home to cut back on the financial outlay.
Definatly go to the open days to get a feel for the uni and the place.
