Thank you for the comment! happy to hear that bike would be fine. I'll make sure to lock it when I buy one

Sandpiper. Manager in there seems quite prompt and helpful. Have you ever visited there?

Google says 20 minuates by bike/bus. actually I am leaning toward to another one.

Thanks for the info! then I probably should bike or walk instead...

Nice to hear that I don't have to rush! and thanks a lot for your comments on Sandpiper. It is a great help!

@AspiringGC Thank you so much for the answer! Yes, I heard that Sandstone offers Shuttle to campus. I am considering Sandpiper for now but didn't decide yet. What worries me most is that I cannot visit Tucson before July b/c of visa stuff. Do you think searching for an apartment at July is plausible? I'd like to get one early for a relief, but I'm concerned about making rent contract without actually visiting one.

.

I'll also be moving to Tucson in July to attend a PhD program at the U of A, and have been browsing for apartments. I'm not going to buy a car, so I'd like to go to campus on foot or by bicycle (preferably within 20 minutes). Is there anyone who would recommend me some apartment complex? Info on their pros/cons would also be greatly appreciated I am considering Capistrano, Country Club, Sandston, Fort Lowell, and El Dorado apartments for now, so I would grateful for any additional info on them, too.

I'm going to Arizona too! Nice to meet you here. My research interests lie at gender & career, org, culture and a bit of social psych. See you at Tucson!

Possibly. I am the international student(had Skype interview, as you guessed) who reported on the survey, and the email said it is just an early notice. Have you went to Emory for a visit? I really wanted to go there. Would you share some of your experience with me, if you like?
