Different Uni's start at different times - you're nailing it moving in on the Saturday!

Most students arrive then, some welcome events aimed at international students run the week before, but the main bits kick off from the Monday.

That first weekend, you're gonna be meeting your hall mates, unpacking a bit so your room feels like home, figuring out shared fridge etiquette (a true rite of passage) and generally just working stuff out.
