Thinley"I have been living in Wright Village for a year and half and my stay here has been more than what I ever expected. I never imagined my college life to be bursting with thrilling events and wonderful people. Living here has been so terrific. In this place, I realised that within no time, strangers became family. Furthermore, it taught me a lot of lessons that would help me throughout my life and more over, Wright Village is a place filled with warmth, a serene environment and guaranteed, a place that would remain imprinted in your heart forever."

Levi"At first living away from home was abit intimidating, but thanks to the friendly RF's and flatmates I had, it soon became normal for me. Wright Village is a great place to live who let you do your own thing and never pressure you into anything. The events they hold as well such as cocktail nights or sporting events such as paintball are also great to tag along too and to get to know more residents better. I look forward to returning in 2013 and look to go to more events and meet the new freshers who join the village - wherever in the world they're from."

Alice"As a fresh school leaver, I was excited yet apprehensive at entering university for the first time. However I found that my fears were misplaced when I was welcomed very warmly by the people of Wright Village. Becoming like family, my fellow residents at Wright Village are extremely friendly who gave me advice on studies and also ensured that I've adjusted to the social life of living independently. Throughout my year at Wright Village, I have made numerous friends which I hope to continue in my second year in the Village!"

Also, I've met some amazing people and made many new friends, friends whom I will keep in contact with for a VEEERRYYY long time. Wright Village is a great place to live - all the benefits of living independently on campus wrapped into one neat package. I'll definitely return to Wright Village. Why? Because I <3 WRIGHT VILLAGE!
