I'm changing schools and I think I'm going to try renting a room with 3 other people this time around. I was curious if the mighty TNL sages could give me some info on doing this. It isn't the first time I've lived on my own, but it will be the first time that the bulk of it isn't handelled by the school.
plz don't troll the thread. I'm really interested in everyone's REAL opinions and thoughts.

I'd check www.craigslist.com for sure. Do you know the three people you are living with? Or do you plan on getting setup with these people (some college apts do such).
dont get a roomate..
look for a dorm and shit...
I would try to get to know your roommates a little if possible. You dont want to be rooming with some drug kingpins who bring down the law on your humble abode.
Seriously. The moment one of these guys fucks up you're going to go from good friends to bitter enemies in not time at all.Quote:

At my alma mater 100% of people lived outside of dorms and most of them lived with 3 other people. The non-rent paying thing isn't a big deal from what I know. Never happened to me.
M beat you to this. Not every state uses the cragslist. As of last night the only thing on craigslist for the area was two houses for sale.Quote:
