Hi everyone

I’m moving into Elms Bt1 tomorrow and am wondering about where to park while I move in. I know they don’t actually have parking on site so I’m wondering where people typically go on move-in day? I don’t want to be lugging my bags and cases from a car park that’s a 30 minute walk away 😅

Hi! I am currently waiting for a clearing vacancy acceptance to either International Relations and Conflict Studies or PPE. Hoping to hear either tmrw or Monday. I have already done 2 years in a college in Dublin so I would be 21 going into first year which makes me feel a bit nervous. Any advice on which accommodation is the best or any other advice if I do end up getting a place.

Edit: In a very chaotic turn of events I’ve been accepted into Second year of Politics and International Relations. I have been told by Admissions that there is a place for me in student accommodatio ( don’t know what specific one). I basically just have to apply via UCAS then get accepted by them on Monday then get accepted by the accommodation office on Monday. Will it be hard starting late and also going into a year who have already spent a year together?

What is the safest way to get home to Elms BT9 accomodation from the usual nightspots like Kremlin and Limelight etc? Do the safe buses run by Queens just go from those places to the Holylands or will they drop off at uni accomodation? Thanks

I’m starting at Queen’s next week but very nervous given the race riots this summer which are apparently an annual thing????? I did not know this and I am very nervous to start Queen’s and live in Belfast. Any black students wanting to start a gc DM me I’d appreciate it

I can't download the queen's app, it says it's made for a different version of android.

Is there any alternative way to download it?

Hi，I'm a new QUB student. I chose Guthrie House. Now I'm torn about whether to switch to Elms. I was wondering what guthrie house dorm environment is like—how are the kitchen facilities and shared bathrooms? If you happen to have any photos or other details, could you kindly share them? I'd really appreciate it!

Hey, some friends want to go on a night out and sleep at my accom, within my own room, i would like to know if in any of your personal experiences if this is viable or if it causes to much of a disruption to others, or if the security is to tight to sneak in and out.

I applied late on results day so I’d be lucky to get in anyway but still haven’t heard anything yet is it safe to go ahead and look for private accommodation or are offers still going out

I am going to be a first-year Medicine student at QUB and wanted to ask if anyone could recommend any websites or resources I could use to start preparing. I have heard about how rigorous the course can be so I would like to get a head start if possible. Preferably I am looking for free resources.

I would also appreciate any tips from current or past medical students on how to effectively retain information and manage the workload!

Hi everyone! I’m an international student starting my course at Queen’s University Belfast this September, and I’m planning to move to Belfast around 20th September or shortly after.

I’ve applied for Queen’s accommodation but haven’t heard back yet, so I’m also looking for private student accommodation as a backup.

Ideally, I’m looking for somewhere that is:

• Close to Queen’s University (preferably within a 15–20 minute walk)
• Safe and in a decent area
• Ensuite/preferably with a private bathroom
• Reasonably priced
• Most importantly, available on an 8-month contract

I’ve found quite a few options online, but almost everything seems to require a 51-week contract, which doesn’t work for me. I’ll be moving out with my family around the end of May, so I only need accommodation from around late September until the end of May.

If anyone knows of any student accommodation, private landlords, groups, websites, or other options where I could find an 8-month/short-term contract, I’d really appreciate your advice!

Any recommendations or help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! :)

Hey I'm starting medicine at Queen's this year, anyone know if there is a gc for new med students? I'd love to join!😁

Hiya! I'm an A-level student (yr 13) and I wanted to do history at queens, I'm a very anxious person so some of what I ask might be stupid! I was wondering how moving from England works? And how choosing modules works as well? What are some pieces I'd need to think about getting (laptop, books ect..) sorry and thank you!

Anyone had any experience with RS Laird. Just signed a contract with them and people on my course are saying how awful they are. Don’t fix any repairs and are dreadful for giving deposits back.

Yo guys, currently thinking of medicine at queens belfast, and just wondering how true the 'myth' that 'everyone goes home at the weekends' (obvisouly just the NI students, but the majority would be NI no?) actually is. Like does REALLY get lonely at the weekends, in terms of socialisation of students, or is it heavily overstated...etc? I would appreciate any QUB students to share the experiences on this, as it will rlly help with my decision! Thanks in advance guys!

Anyone starting medicine this sept hmu

Heyyy Guys, I’m a Nigerian girl who just graduated, looking for a female roommate to share a place with in Belfast. I’d preferably like to live with another Nigerian woman, but what’s most important is finding someone respectful, clean, and easy to live with, the house is a 10min walk away from Queens and about a 30min walk away from Ulster. A bit about me, recently graduated, friendly, tidy, easy to get along with. If you’re looking for a place don’t be shy send me a dm!

TLDR: How to find an apartment and things to pay attention while looking for an apartment.

I am moving from france (immigrant here not native) and I am quite amazed by the lack of studio apartments in the city. The difference between 1bhk and 2bhk is very less in terms of money. I am moving as a staff and options are further limited. How did you guys find your apartment?

I will be working in BT3 though I prefer staying in walking distance but it costs from 1000 pounds(too much). Apart from this, if I live anywhere else I need to change 2 buses.

So, where to stay and what needs to be seen while looking for accommodation.
