I have reserved my seat at a med school, but I'm waitlisted for my top 2 choices so I won't be 100% sure about where I'm going until late May or June.

Does anyone have any advice or experience from being in this situation? Is there any chance an apartment complex would let me reserve a unit without putting down a deposit? I just don't want to have to scramble in June and have to overpay for a crappy place to live.
