I was recently accepted to the University of Rochester but the only thing holding me back from making my decision to go there is the possibility of having to live off campus. I am transferring in as a student athlete so part of the problem is having to live far away from the training facilities and the practice field, as well as my teammates. What sucks too is that I won’t know if I get on campus housing until I send in my deposit and decide to go to the school. Any tips, advice, or inside knowledge on my situation.
I’m in the same, exact situation! I decided to put down my deposit, but I’m extremely worried about housing. What did you decide?
There is a lot of housing closeby so I am not sure you will have too much trouble. If you want, pull out a map and look through the craigslist to see about how far places are from the campus. My son used to ride his bike or walk and there was a shuttle bus that he could take. Remember, Eastman students have to get to UR too so there are bus lines available. You can look over the routes by finding the schedules on the UR website.
