[Espo15]

Filling out some online accomodation application and its asking for my house preferences..
Which colleges/halls are the best?

 

[Ziff]

Look at their webpages. There's a list somewhere.
e.g. bandg.anu.edu.au, fenner.anu.edu.au etc.

Yeah i know but they all seem pretty good.

Wondering if anyone living on campus can gimme some pointers

it just depends on what atmosphere you want. There are extremes you see.

If you are a study person, choose B and G, Fenner or Ursula, if you are party Johns and Bruce, if you are inbetween, when filling out Bruce hall acceptance offer, write down really conservative opinions and you will be put in north wing which is really quiet but you can still go over other side and party with party idiots on east and west block.

there are many variables.

 

[Ziff]

Can't you just make friends with people from party halls and shimmy on over?

Whatever you do, don't choose Johns.

i got accepted into john's but didn't end up moving to Canberra....

why would it have been a mistake to go there? (excuse my ignorance). the guy that interviewed me seemed OK...

 

[blah says she]

there is nothing wrong with johns. it has a certain reputation (drinking, jocks) which some people like to live up to, but from johns are some of the most talented, caring, funny and awesome people i know. although i can understand if you don't want to live at johns, i mean i wouldn't like to live next to me either

 

[Poker_Face]

is there a mix of races in each hall or college or does some halls have more multiculturalism than others?
just going on wots been said like johns being jocks, does that mean johns is more aussie??
