I am so indecisive about accommodation for my 1st year in uni. I first planned to go for the first year, but then I pivoted to commuting, as it is cheaper. Now I am considering it again as 1st years get guaranteed accommodation. I don't know anyone who stayed in accommodation when they went to uni as my mum and dad commuted, and I am the only child of 3 to go to university.

I don't know what to do. Should I go outside my comfort bubble and go to accommodation and immerse myself in uni life? Should I stay in my comfort bubble and commute to save for accommodation for the 2nd year, with no guarantee of getting it?

Any advice would be welcome.

I didn't think I would be accepted this quickly, but yesterday I got an email saying that I have an unconditional offer!. There was some back and forth with the admissions team as they sent the email to my old email, and the student portal would not allow me entry, saying that I was not linked to the account. I managed to accept the offer, and I shall receive my enrolment email at the end of the summer months before the courses commence in September.

I didn't even need to send in my college certificate, I was worried about as they already had it on the system. I mean, it was a slight waste of £58, but it is always a good thing to have on hand.
