I can't wait to start in the fall! Congrats sqxz!!! I'm so happy that everything worked out for you and that you're happy with the decision. :D I've just decided to accept the Harvard Biophysics offer! I'm still contemplating a one-year deferral, so I'm not sure if I'll be in Cambridge this fall or next, but boy does it feel great to have this finally nailed down. sqxz and immuno555 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sqxz Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 I have, but I suspect I won't have much luck until the spring semester ends because I'm moving to a small city. Really? Is it a college town? In Champaign-Urbana, most leases start in August, but the leases for the more popular apartments are usually signed in October of the previous year. Thankfully, undergraduates there mostly live in 2 or 4 bedroom apartments, so there are still some studios and 1 bedroom apartments left for me!

Yeah, college towns can be fierce with the housing since most people living there are students. It's actually easier in a big city cause of the variety of folks and their various occupations. I'd get started ASAP, Vene! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's actually easier in a big city cause of the variety of folks and their various occupations. I'd get started ASAP, Vene!I've called up various landlords and am on wait lists. I also filled out the application for a university apartment. I did this last month actually and the landlords gave me the impression that I was looking very early for a place to live. FYI, I'm going to Burlington, VT and am hunting for a 1 bedroom if that means anything. I think I'm able to afford a little more than most students because my wife has an income so I won't be living on just my stipend.
