<p>Hey guys, I'm considering UVa's medical school next year. I know threads are usually about the undergrad, but if anyone could help me out, I'd really appreciate it!</p>
<p>What are some popular places for grad students to live? I'm considering the Woodlands, which has a shuttle to campus at set times. However, if I wanted to get to campus at another time, would there be a bus I could take? If I drove, in what garages / lots would I have to park? If transportation is limited, I might have to live within walking distance.</p>
<p>Transportation is going to be generally limited past midnight on weekdays, 2am on weekends. I suggest, personally, living closer in. There’s a parking garage but it’s only open to visitors. I always see lots of medical students on the buses, and walking around, so the main areas I think they’d live in are either Madison Ln area (Ashtree, Oxford Hills, Cambridge Square) or along JPA. There’s a condo place literally right behind the hospital too, as a couple of other places that you could look at. Those areas are pretty quiet, I have a friend living in that area right now (Monroe Ln and Brandon Ave)
I don’t suggest living near the Corner, it can get loud, but there are some Med school students always walking around there, even in my building, so maybe…</p>
