REF:66-2002-3833304 - Matching flatmates

Your comment: To make the living experience at Uni even better, why not match flatmates based on their living habits and interests? I was excited about living in a flat with people I can get to know but realised that we are such different personalities who do not necessarily combine well. In the future, you could try and make a questionnaire about living situation, habits and interests to try and match the students better and based on what they are like. The questions could be about sleeping times, tidiness, going out versus staying at home, etc. There could also be a section about hobbies and interests so that students can be paired with like-minded people.

Our response: 

Many thanks for your feedback via Tell Us Now. The Accommodation Office are looking to see if we can extend the number of options we can give students applying for residences in future years. To do that we need to make changes to, or replace, out current accommodation allocation system software. We will certainly consider your feedback as part of our current workstream to enhance the options available currently.
