What's it for?
It's really a three week party that happens from Monday to Friday. It starts two weeks before official start of classes on Monday 10th August (see schedule below), and runs one week into term. It's a party meaning that you get to meet all your future friends, classmates, partners, or work partners in a fun and informal setting.
But it's useful too right?
It's really to meet people and party, but there is a functional underbelly too - most MBA2007s, 2008s 2009s and 2010s (and arguably MIFFTs, EMBAs, etc) were able to find their flat mates or room mates through this event. Its also a great way to put together a group and negotiate with estate agents collectively. We will try to have some leasing agents join one day per week to provide some advice (and their business). This is not definite, but if this works out, we will let you know. So it's not all partying really... Best of all, by the time you get started with school, you would've already met many of your classmates.We will definitely ask our fellow MBA 2010 class join as well if they also want to get flat mates or sublet their flats.
Wow, that sounds amazing - do I need to register or something?
No. Just turn up! We'll give you a name badge when you arrive with a simple "traffic light" code to signal if you're looking for a flat, flatmates, or none of the above.
We'll try and take a little bit of information about where you want to live, how much you want to pay etc when you arrive. This will help you find potential flatmates more easily on subsequent nights.
If you’re not interested in flatsharing, it doesn't matter, just come along anyway to meet people and have fun!
What if I can't make all the dates?
You do not have to show up to all of evenings. Just dip in and out whenever you can!
Any other questions?
Generations of MBAs have handed down this wisdom (thanks guys!) but feel free to get in touch with the Crawl Team if you have any questions about the event that we haven't covered!
