<p>Hi my name is yash patel i am joining as a graduate student for spring 2013 pursuing a masters degree in biological sciences if any of fellow students who have got an admit from iit in the same department please help me out with the information regarding the lodging and boarding. You can also contact me at my email: yashpatel28@**********</p>
<p>You should have received information about your housing options with your acceptance packet. The web site for housing on campus is [Illinois</a> Institute of Technology | Residence and Greek Life](<a href=“http://www.iit.edu/housing/index.shtml]Illinois”>http://www.iit.edu/housing/index.shtml) and there you can find information about the different options from dormitory to apartments. There is also a link to information regarding off-campus housing possibilities <a href=“http://www.iit.edu/housing/pdf/off_campus.pdf[/url]”>http://www.iit.edu/housing/pdf/off_campus.pdf</a> </p>
<p>Many graduate students come and stay the first semester on campus and then move to an off-campus apartment once they are more familiar with Chicago and find other like-minded students. If you want to go off-campus right away, you might wish to contact the Biology Department Coordinator (check the department web page) who has information about housing opportunities in the nearby Bridgeport neighborhood.</p>
