When to go...

I am planning on going to GDL at the end of Dec. beginning of Jan. before classes and orientation. Should I already have a place to live by then or would I be able to find one at that time?

Does anybody think it's better to take a trip ahead of time to GDL in November to figure things out?

there are plenty of places available. You really need time to look around and get the best deal available and dont get the first rat hole available. Network with some people here so they can guide you better and/or look at some old posts that talk about the best way to do this. Good luck

I'm heading out in Nov to check out the scene but I'm moving out the first week in Jan. about 1.5 week before classes start. That should help with the settling in... we'll see
