Hey! I’m currently a CAP student at UTTyler who will be transferring to Austin Fall 2016 and I’m looking to find a decent apartment at a realistic price near campus and was wondering if anyone suggests any place in particular. It doesn’t have to be too close, because I’m bringing my car but hopefully no more than 30 minutes away if that’s at all possible.
Thanks!
I had a niece that lived in a co-op around 21st street. She had a small one bedroom. They have a communal kitchen and everybody is expected to do chores. I do believe it was quite reasonably priced for Austin and was in a great location. There are numerous co-ops around UT and for lower cost housing, that might be an option.
@SailorVenus - FYI- if you are on FB- you might join & search ‘UT Austin Sublets/Roommate Finder’
If you aren’t a sheltered baby, you can try looking at apartments in riverside. Very cheap for your own room if you have 3 roommates, and it’s 15 minutes away from campus. My only suggestion if you do this is to gather 3 friends to sign with you or you will get placed with random people who may or may not be UT students. You can find good deals for places closer to campus, but they might be harder to find. Try checking the facebook page like someone above mentioned. I was able to a find a great deal for a place across the street from campus because my friend was subleasing, so ask your friends as well.
