I'm still waiting on the only school I applied to. It's frustrating!

Why don't you guys just email or call the departments? What is it going to hurt at this point?

I also applied to only one program. It's stressful to have so much riding on a single decision!

IF I get in, I will continue working (full time lab tech) until about a month before school starts, drive out and find a place, and then take it easy for a few weeks.

I've lived in Hyde Park for the past 5 years. The cheapest 1 bedrooms are going to be $800+. My boyfriend and I currently pay $885 for a 540 square foot 1bed/1bath. You can find places a bit cheaper than this if you go south of 60th street, but it's not the safest area. I don't know much about Bridgeport, other than the fact that a coworker lives there and has an easy commute to Hyde Park on the #4 bus. If you have any questions about Hyde Park or the rental market here, let me know.
