Stay on campus 1st semester... you won't regret it. This way you can visit the apartments YOU WANT TO, and make your OWN MIND up. Come on... The school dorms are really nice.

i stayed at cote d azur for a while and it was cheap and ok but it also depends on your landlord. stay away from blue azur, some shady owner and his mistress/maid has been found in student apartments going through your things. at least thats the way it was in 04.

try to stay on campus as long as possible.

without a doubt, living on campus is my first choice, but this is just in case the student apartments are full.

someone may know... how full are the student apartments for the fall term?

call up the school and ask. Also, 1st sem students get priority for campus housing.

I think the dorms will be at capacity for your class. If you sent in your deposit on time, you should be ok.

Do the dorms have a washer/dryer? or do we have to lug our dirty laundry to the laundry mat?
