Dear all , this weekend (1-3rd of August), the new International Master's students will be arriving to start their bridging studies. Most of them have been able to get housing, but two have not been able to get any positive response from PSOAS yet. The students are one male student - Reduanul Bari from Bangladesh - and one female, Ramita Sulu from Nepal. The latter had a very tough time to even be able to afford coming here, as her family was hit very hard by the Nepal earthquake this spring, and she was not able to commit very late. This is the reason why PSOAS has not had time to find a place for her.
If you have a place for either of them, for a few days or even a few weeks, or know about affordable housing, even temporary, please let me know. You can imagine that this is a fairly urgent manner. And as I wrote, even a few days would help for a start.
Best regards
Alex
