I've heard most of my student friends saying it'll arrive on the 28th.

yeah that's what Iv heard.

Should be the first day of the semester, assuming they haven't messed anything up (which is a fairly hefty assumption).

Mine came in on Monday, as we started back this week.

Should have had mine on the 21st, annoying thing is I can't buy my PC until it does

MY flat mates who are at the UU (ulster uni not unseen uni disappointingly) got it today, yesterday or the day before as they actually have lectures this week. I get it next monday as thats when lectures really start (this is just dodgy freshers week) so when ever your real lectures start!

Thanks

I thought it was the day that you enrol for the course, which would make mine the 1st of october (year 2) =\

We can enrol online for about a month before we actually start

I get it 28th, 1st day of new year

By the way, who here has gone to their freshers fair to get some free food despite not being a fresher?

Love the free Dominos we get at our fair

Is that what a student loan is for? Buying PCs?

Serious question BTW...

Nah, I worked all summer and made just over £1000 including other bills. So I need to wait for the loan to come in so I can pay rent and not be left with nowt. I do intend to use the loan for living expenses as I should.

86JR · 23 Sep 2009 at 18:14

I dont have any living expenses, so i just use mine for whatever. 0% interest this year so why not ?

Indy500 · 23 Sep 2009 at 18:17

I'm baffled as to why the government lend £4000 a year to people living with their parents while the less fortunate get fobbed off as usual. Still, par for the course in this regime...

Maccy · 23 Sep 2009 at 18:31
