aww, that is so nice of you. Thanks for the helpful info. It's a bit of a hastle having to look for apartments, since Philly is so far from Cali, which is why I'm hoping housing will work out for the first year at least. Rats- yikes! I think I'll have nightmares now.
The thought of having a nice and clean apartment is indeed ideal, but of course there's the question of cost and commuting to school. Housing seems more convenient, but I hope it's not terrible to the point that I'll be living in a "rat hole"? haha
Center City would be where the Main Campus is right? I think housing is terribly expensive in Phily! You'd think paying $750-1000 (what it appears to be costing) would mean a decent living space.
I'm worried my loans will stack up real quickly due to all the living expenses.. So I notice that you'll be attending our neighbor school, Jefferson - are you looking into housing too?
(I'll send you a PM with some specific questions- thanks
)
Thanks Tily, for your input as well.
