Hi, sorry to bother you, did you mention you have dogs? I am driving there right now and my pug got super stressed and had skin allergy flare-up... can you recommend I a vet I can get in touch ASAP... I will be there May 21!
The website is http://www.weinercompanies.com/. Their phone number, website, and apartment/house availability is on the site. Good luck! Feel free to let me know if you have any questions.

Hi guys! I'll be attending for my Ph.D. in Anthropology. I also applied for SPI, so I hope to be around in the summer. Lupita, I think we met during the community of scholars event. Glad to know you're definitely attending!
Hey.... yes! I remember you!
It's great to know you will be going!
I hope we get a chance to hang out during SPI

If you're looking for a dog friendly, quiet area, I would recommend Urbana, at least a half mile east of campus (to avoid the undergrad housing). I just moved to Urbana in the fall with my dog and I live in a 2 bedroom apartment in the middle of a residential area. I love where I live. There are lots of parks and the residential area is really nice to walk around. There's a dog park in Urbana too which is nice to let your dogs run their energy off. The buses run pretty far, I personally wanted to stick reasonably close to campus, so I'm about a mile east which is perfect, right next to downtown urbana (easy to catch a bus), but still in the quiet residential area and easy to bike to school from. My landlord has mostly pet friendly places (apartments and houses). They are Weiner Companies. They are pretty good, I haven't had any problems with them and the only time I've had to ask them to do something, it got done within 2 days (I had some bees hanging around my balcony and they were taken care of in less than 2 days). They have several good options for both apartments and houses that are pet friendly. The other good pet friendly place I found was Joe Allen. But, they seem a bit more unorganized (the apartments are nice, the lady who runs most of it is just unorganized). If you have any other questions, let me know.
Thank you! Do you have a contact number for the Wiener Companies? I visited last month, and I think I saw the area you live. It is beautiful. Would love to live around there!

Hey! I will also be attending next Fall. I will join the College of Education for a PhD in Language and Literacy. I will probably move there by late May, as I have applied to the Summer Pre-Doctoral Institute - I expect to attend both June and July. I am very excited about this! Would love to meet others who have chosen UIUC!

I see I am not the only one waiting on Vandy. No acceptance, but no rejection either, not even wait listed. I called the Graduate Admissions office and they were pretty helpless. I have a very generous funding offer at UIUC (my second choice) and acceptances at UA, UC-Denver, UTSA. I think UIUC will be. Im pretty dissapointed about Vanderbilt tho

Hey! I will also be at UIUC this weekend for a visit. I will be joining the COE PhD Program in C&I - I am super excited!
I am well, um, older (34) and I would like to rent a house so I can take my dogs with me. I am looking for somewhere quiet, but close to a bus line. I do have a car, but I've read that is a pain / not really cost-effective to take it to campus. Can someone recommend a quiet, nice area to rent a house?
