first year university room tour/studio flat (freshers 2020, uni of Sheffield)

hey everyone !! 2021 update xx
i've now moved out, so i can let you all know where i lived. this building is called redvers tower & it was a silver studio flat. i really liked living there as it was a super nice flat, i would say if you're looking for a studio definitely consider it as an option, but make sure to look around as i just kind of picked the first place i saw and it wasn't the most social place if you're a first year. also the way they dealt with covid restrictions wasn't always great as i wasn't allowed any visitors until february, which obviously impacted my mental health a lot and meant i couldn't bubble up with a friend during lockdowns so i had to spend lot of the year at home. i now live in a 5 bed student house with my friends xx
thank you so much for watching this video, i hope you loved it and i would love it if you could subscribe and join my youtube family.

hey everyone !! i hope you all love this room tour, i love my little flat :)) i just thought i’d explain why i’m in a studio & stuff in a pinned comment, feel free to ask more and i’ll add the answers to this. why are you in a studio & not halls: I just feel a lot more comfortable in my own space, i have never really wanted to live in halls but always wanted to move out for uni so a studio is the perfect fit for me !! do you get lonely?: not really, i am spending a lot of time going out with friends & doing uni work so it’s nice to go home and have the time to myself (like the introvert i am hehe) do you live in university accommodation: nope, it’s private but only for students. how much is your accommodation: around £160 per week :) how far away is your accommodation from your uni?: it’s a 10/15 minute walk depending on whereabouts in uni i’m going. is Covid affecting your living situation: obviously i am super anxious about getting covid and having to isolate totally alone for two weeks, there’s a lot going around uni halls and incase that happens i’ve stocked up on loads of food !! 🤍🤍

I'm also a first year in sheffield and have already been nosying at other accommodations around the city (mine is a rip off lmao), it'd be kinda cool if at the end of the year you made a video summing up your experience and such? love the decorating :)

[@Andrea-kj4vq]

Which dorm are you staying in? Is it the uni's one?

[@jas_313]

This is amazing for £160 a week!! I’m considering a studio as I’m very introverted and would much prefer my own space - it’s reassuring to know that all those stereotypes associated with studios ‘being isolated, making no friends’ aren’t true :) Curious to know whether everyone in your apartment block are Uni of Sheffield students only or whether they’re mixed with other Sheffield uni students?

[@sS1SR906]

well its for students any uni students can live there

[@Amolika51]

Based on the location, it’ll be a mix of both unis but I imagine it’ll be more Sheffield Hallam

Hi what camera do you use to vlog! The quality of this video is amazing

[@tillyjgraham]

Hello love, I also am applying for a studio apartment instead of a shared one for the same reason, I’ve always wanted to move from home but I value my personal space a lot. I’m just wondering how you coped and managed to find your new friends, was it a hard experience? Or did you find that you made friends easily. I’m not a massive drinker but will still enjoy going to some events, I just have it pictured in my head that it would for some reason be harder to make friends as you’re not sharing a kitchen etc. Thank you so much :) this video is really helpful 🤍🤍

I have a question. If you get a studio flat in the first year do you get to keep for all your years at uni?

It's just like a normal rental, so it depends how long the lease is and what you want to do

[@emmanuellatetsowo8126]

Hi Charlotte, just wondering how easy it was for you to get your studio flat. I’m currently in year 13 and I’m almost positive that I’ll be going to Uni in Manchester however the studio apartments seem to be fully let already and I’m not sure if leaving it till next August is too late to put down a deposit and get a studio ? x

[@anim2698]

Hi, which accommodation is this? I'm also a student at Sheffield and this looks amazing!

[@oliviahanson7398]

Hey Charlotte, could you do a video on how to deal with accommodation finances. I’m worried if I don’t get into my top uni choices I’ll have to go to a uni where I’ll pay for accommodation. It would be nice for advice on how you pay for it, and if you pay weekly💜

[@user-ef3mf3bw7h]

your loan covers your accommodation and you always pay every 4 months but it gives you the price as weekly

[@rachael5923]

@@user-ef3mf3bw7h not quite, depends on how much the accommodation is. Loan covers fees and maintenance loan covers part of (or all if your rent is cheap) your living cost. Maintenance loan depends on family income.
