For new students

Coming to University is an exciting time but also raises lots of questions. What will life in Derwent be like? What should you bring? What can you expect on your arrival? What will happen in the first weeks?

The people best placed to answer your questions are current Derwent students. In Derwent we strive to be as student run as possible. It is therefore fitting that I hand over to the Junior Common Room Committee to welcome you to Derwent and advise you on what to expect.

You can also address your questions to them directly on the Derwent Freshers' Fortnight 2011 facebook group. There are also Facebook groups for each block (A, B, C, D, E/F and Eden's Court), so you can meet your neighbours online before you arrive.

The JCRC and I look forward to welcoming you in October.
