Guest guest Posted April 20, 2006 Posted April 20, 2006 everybody has pointed out that this place is a bit costly... I am just not getting, how costly... can I get by with monthly expenses of around $1k ? if not, then how much more ?? Sure hope that will be enough for the basics and a bit of eating out, etc etc... replies highly appreciated
Guest guest21 Posted April 21, 2006 Posted April 21, 2006 That will be doable if you get a roommate. Probably not if you live alone though. My bro pays 730/mo for a TINY studio with not much of a kitchen. It's probably like 200 sq. feet, max. If you get a roommate (share a 1 bedroom apt) you could get away on 1k/month total expenses.
Guest guest Posted April 21, 2006 Posted April 21, 2006 wow... that's one costly place then.... anyway, I think I can afford to go a little beyond 1k p.m. .... but was really hoping 1k would be enough... though that is imp, I sure hope the education pays for itself... I am going into the PhD program of EE of UCSC... any word or info on that ?? heard the place is great and otehr stuff.... but anything else that an new incoming int'l student should be aware of ??
