MBTA

Same boat here. Headed to Charleston in the fall and getting a little worried about the lack of affordable housing. Any current Charleston residents with advise would be welcome.

Anyone deal with flakey recommenders? My 3rd recommender ghosted and I had to replace him (mostly my fault because I was hesitant to ask him in the first place. Professional rather than academic rec). Most programs were flexible and understanding but it took weeks to get it sorted out and another letter written. In that time the only program that asked for 2 recs instead of 3 accepted me outright, while another waitlisted me as soon as they received the new letter. I'm giving myself another round to try to catch on with a funded program but I'm frustrated I didn't control all variables to learn for next year.
