I got admitted to Electrical Engineering. Getting offered $1500 a month, minus 1000 per sem for misc. fees, and taxes. Anybody know if that is enough to get by? It seems that housing alone is $600 per month, roughly, though I am not sure if that includes bills. What about other expenses, like food and travel, provided I don't cook? How much savings does it leave? Anybody know?
