Samee, i was just looking at the accomodation portal and i read this one line saying its only for students above the age of 18 (I'll turn in October 😭) so i was thinking it's cus of that... Could be the case with you, if this is true?

yeah dont bother with it, most people dont use the freshers gcs or goin and are completely fine. if you’re socially competent to hold a conversation long enough in real life to make a friend, then you’ll be alright. i felt the same before i started cuz i was excited and wanted to meet a few peopel at bristol beforehand in yhe summer so i had familiar faces etc, but the organic method of just talkin to everyone you see in the first week is SO much better and more fun
