First year UC students having to flat as halls capacity full

First year University of Canterbury students are being forced to go flatting as capacity in the university's halls of residence is completely maxxed out. Enrolment at UC went over 22,000 at the start of this year - up 20 percent from 5 years ago. But that's meant over 4000 students have applied for spots in the first year halls when there are only 2000 spaces available. With so many students forced to look elsewhere to live, flats are also becoming harder to come by. Bella Craig reports.
