Does anyone have on-campus housing recommendations? I was assigned to Berkeley Apartments unexpectedly early. Anybody know anything about these apartments? I’m concerned about no air conditioning.
I wasn’t planning on finalizing my preferences on my apartment application until after I visited this week.
I had a friend in undergrad who lived in the Berkeley apartments. They're decent compared to some of the other on-campus apartments, and you won't really need A/C after mid-September or so. The Berkeley apartments aren't super close to the medical school (about 1.5 miles away), and depending on what time you arrive at school in the morning, you might have some traffic on the roads around campus. Several of my classmates live in the Hamline apartments across the parking lot from the medical school, which are quite a bit nicer and do have A/C but they're considerably more expensive, and I've heard the waiting list is pretty full for next fall already.
