Our top tips for fresher's to get you on your way

• Leave your room door open (obviously while you're in your flat!) for the first couple of weeks so you can meet other students in your flat
• Go to the activity and fresher's fair and pick up loads of student free stuff - make sure you pick up the campus maps as well so you can work out how to get around
• Insure your stuff - I knew someone who got there stuff nicked within an hour of arriving in student accommodation (they'd just popped out to pick up some food shopping!)
• Get some of those passport-sized photos made before you register as you'll need them for your freshers uni card.
• Sort out your student bank account before hand so you have some cash sat in your account (even if it is an overdraft) before you move in - you don't want to be a broke fresher in the first week
• Check out our list of things to take to uni - print out the list and tick them off as you pack them in the car before you go to university
