As per usual the move in was hectic but it was good to meet the new people. I would recommend trying to grab a room that is on the ground floor because the luggage will hurt you
The fresher reps were great, and made us feel like home, the uni did it's best to intergrate the students together
All freshers are welcomed to campus and city, I felt like I fit right in. Since I am not a local, I felt like I would not get involved in many freshers activities, but after visiting the freshers fairs, I felt like I should get stuck into anything and everything that I can.
Moving in was simple and easy and immediately I felt welcomed by the student ambassadors. There was a plan every evening for going out and every day there were activities that were so fun and inclusive. Freshers week at Lancaster is an event not to be missed
freshers week was really good… there was loads of events durning the day and a lot of nights out… helped to meet new people and make friends.
Fresher's week at Lancaster University was great (went every year), with events every day and night to keep you entertained and easily meet new people to settle in quickly. There are events both on and off campus making it easily accessible for all.
Fresher reps helped us move in, there wasn't too much going on in terms of non-alcoholic events but there were pub quizzes, treasure hunts for prizes and that sort of thing. Pretty sure every day was a night out in a different bar and you get free entry to all the clubs if you wear the shirt. 10/10 would fresher again.
The college system means that it it easy to make friends. Houses compete against other houses in competitions and there’s many events on and off campus which encourage interacting with new people such as bar crawls and drinking comps.
Fantastic I thoroughly enjoyed every night. Cheap and safe nights to be had in Lancaster and larger cities nearby!
Freshers was such an amazing opportunity to meet new people, make friends and get a feel for the university. Booze was ridiculously cheap and all the uni’s activities and society sign ups where very well organised.
Really good experience but uni could have done more to introduce us to people that weren't in our actual accommodation - barely knew anyone outside of my house after the first week
It was suppppper amazing. Very good fun and welcoming. Got very drunk and had good time at party. 10/10 would fresherr again. Very fun time in town club
When I moved into uni, we had great time with lots of freshers events day and night. Nights outs to day to day sports engagement activities. The freshers fair was a fav getting testers and freebies.
As a fresher my moving experience was great, as there were constantly party's in my halls. The events where mostly party's, thus making it harder for a shy person to fit in. Nevertheless I think that participating in those events and in societies is very helpful for freshers to meet new people
