Hello. I’m starting the process of buying stuff for uni (pots, pans etc.). I was wondering what I’m allowed to keep in my room. My parents were going to buy me a mini-fridge to keep in my room, but I’m not sure if I’m allowed it. Furthermore, I was hoping to keep my kitchenware in my room, but wasn’t sure if I’d get into trouble if they found a cooking knife in my room cause, in all fairness, that would look a bit odd. Are these things allowed to be kept in my room?
On a separate note, what time does the university allow us to move in on move-in day? Can’t find anything on the website. Thanks.

Hello guys. I’m starting at Lancaster in September (if results day goes well lol) but I’m a bit confused by the start dates for things. My course starts 21st Sep but my accommodation contract starts a few days after that. I’m confused because it looks like my course starts before I’m allowed into my accommodation, which would imply that I’d be at university without any accommodation. I’m going to email the uni but I figured I’d get a quick response here which would provide a bit of context before that. Does anyone know what the deal is? Have I messed up when choosing accommodation or am I just missing something? Thanks for any help.
