I will be on the island for the first time in MAY and am looking for a roommate. Although I have read ALL the postings on the ROSS forum I still have not been able to get a handle for the housing on the island. Although, I realize the prudent general advice seems to be a "look before you leap" which I am wholeheartedly in favor of, I am unable to set foot on the island until May 7 this being the case this may not work out for me so well. So, for those of you already on the island and can offer insight on the housing situation in terms of rent, amenities we should expect, best locations etc...please do post it here for everyone. If you need someone to split bills with I'm all ears and eyes (if you can send pics). I am currently in New Orelans so if anyone would like to set up a get together I would love to meet you. If there is anyone else also in need of a roommate and would like to talk please feel free to contact me.

Also if someone could start another forum entitled "Roommates" under the Miscellaneous Forums it would be a better way to get people together. I'm not sure how to go about doing this.

Rajesh:

Thanks for the suggestion. We have an Apartment Exchange Forum in the Cassified category. I just noticed that it is not listed on our main faorum page under misc forums, so we will add that as soon as possible. Until now, most users have just posted their housing info in the respective school fora, but hopefully it will get more active so that we will have a universal area to find housing info. If this is not what you meant, let us know and we will see what we can do. Good luck.
