Colorado Boulder Applicants

[midnight]

I agree with midnight, no worries, I didn't feel like anyone was fishing for roommates either!

 

Thanks for the information about the facebook page as well as for the information about the housing already.  If all goes according to plan, I will definitely be bringing a car to campus.  The town that I am currently living in (for school) is pretty small and could, I suppose, be walkable for everywhere I need to go, but I love having a car here, it just makes things quicker and easier.  That's just my opinion though!  I'm definitely caught between trying to find roommates or just resigning myself to pay more money.  I think there are great benefits to having roommates, including the price reduction!, but I also think there are benefits to living by myself.  I did discover that Colorado has a site for off-campus housing (as well as for people looking for roommates) so I'm using that as a springboard for ideas/locations and potential roommates.  I also thought about living in on-campus grad housing, but I'm not sure how I really feel about that (or if there are even any places left this late in the year). 

 

rpatty, a grad student I talked to at open house found CU grad housing in June or July without a problem even though the school site makes it seem like it's kind of hard to get a spot.

 

Thanks for mentioning the off-campus housing site! I need to start looking around in earnest right away.

Okay, maybe I'll still consider looking into the on-campus housing then.  It looked relatively fairly priced, I know it will be close to campus, and all utilities/internet is included....that might not be a bad deal, especially for my first year.  Thanks for letting me know about that!

 

You're welcome as well  I thought it was pretty nice that they had such a great website put together for all of us.  It's at least a place to start!

CO (soon to be) SLP did you email/call to find out about the TA positions?  I still haven't heard back but was going to wait until at least tomorrow to ask again...I hate to bug people too much.

oh sorry! Yes I did, I was told that they are still finalizing some coursework requirements and will post them to the eligible student roster as soon as that is done. They don't have an exact timeline just yet but it should be "soon" Financial aid decisions should be posted by now.

Can anyone who was accepted to University of Colorado for Speech share your stats? Thanks

How soon before the deadline did you apply to UC Boulder? I wonder if applying well before the January 15 deadline will increase my chances of being accepted.
