Hey everyone!
I have officially accepted an offer from UNC-Chapel Hill and will be moving there this fall for graduate school. Now I have to begin the daunting process of finding housing and roommates for the upcoming academic year. I was wondering if any of you might have any advice on how and when is the best time to start posting on message boards or emailing future potential roommates about sharing an apartment.
Is there historically a certain time in the summer (May, June, July?) that most people begin their search? I've been perusing one of the UNC roommate boards and have seen that a large portion of the posts are about summer sublets, so I'm wondering if it is in my best interest to wait a month or two for people to start more actively searching for roommates for the fall.
I'd appreciate any advice on the subject you all might have!
