Hi
Any tips for moving in day for Kings College Stamford Street Apparments & anyone know if DS will also need fan, mattresses toppers, extra plugs, extra storage etc?

Any tips for being a 1st year @ Kings, and where do people food shop

TIA..1st time uni

My DD is going to be at Stamford Street. The plan is minimal for moving in week. Yes mattress topper and protector good idea. Take the topper exact size as the mattress. You can get this info from the accommodation confirmation email. We’re planning to take a small fan as it is hot.

I am interested to know if there are volunteers helping out on moving in day
 
Our son is going to KCL to study dentistry. He’s going to be in Hayloft Point. Is there anyone else whose daughter/son is either going to be studying dentistry or living in Hayloft Point?

Hello! First time uni mom here... would be grateful for a recommendation for a fan at SSA.
 
Yes, my daughter will be commuting. She is a bit worried now that she won’t make friends easily.
My daughter was considering commuting but has ended up in halls. Still a worry being in London. What course is she doing. I’ve advised my daughter to join a few clubs to increase chances of friends
 
Hey all - does anyone have info on moving in day for the weekend ie. Will there be helpers on the day, where’s drop off point, how long do we have for drop off etc.
Does anyone have any info/photos on SSA please? Unfortunately we had only seen GDSA so have no idea apart from the photos online.
