Hi Eunice,
I am attending in the Fall as well, and have made contact with a number of grad students and faculty regarding housing and the general area. A few of the grad students warned me about Terre View, and to avoid places on Military Hill if you are not the partying type, since there are lot of college students living there, as it is closest to WSU.
If you have an idea of what kind of housing/environment you prefer, let me know, and I will see what I can do.
