Odds of getting student halls - clearing place - Uni of Liverpool

Long shot but has anyone previously succeeded in getting a room in University Halls at the University of Liverpool when they have applied through clearing? Trying to decide whether the hall options we've picked are wasted if there's no chance of getting them!! Thanks

She would love to be in Greenbank but we’re not sure if it will be fully taken by people who had Liverpool as their firm choice.

It's very expensive comparitvely. My dc went to the Sefton park area when they house shared In the last years of their degree, and house prices were very reasonable.

Might be the wrong uni- sorry!

All the students mix anyway. Grand Central rearranged flats so my dc was with other 1st year students at Uni of.

DD didn’t apply to green bank but that’s her allocated place. So I take from that that the city centre accommodation is oversubscribed and greenbank isn’t. It’s beautiful though, the only downside is distance into the uni

My DD has just done two years in sixth form in Liverpool. I'd say to try to get central Liverpool, there is so much going on and walking distance is much better. I'd be surprised if you didn't get an offer from somewhere, there are loads of providers.

Thanks all. The uni offered a private provider - reviews said it was quiet and some rooms just 2 sharing so we turned it down. She’s now booked in The Lantern in the centre - mixed unis- she’s with all first years. Fingers crossed! Greenbank was well over subscribed we were told.
