[quote=Anonymous][quote=sbenjams]yes I have a separate expense for living costs. I am in the process of search for child care but would really need to narrow down where I would live before I can make final decisions. Is anyone aware of income based housing in DC or has anyone raised children while going to school?[/quote]

I raised a child as a single mother while going to grad school. However, my situation was much different. For one, I didn't relocate, so finding housing, figuring out childcare, etc were not issues.

No, I do not know about income based housing. Perhaps you can contact the HUD-- or whatever the federal income-based housing program is-for a list of places in the area. You may also be able to find that info on their website. Have you googled something along the lines of "low income housing in DC" or "low income housing near AU"?

PS: One thing I do remember from those days of single parenting/raising a child is that 2-3 year olds get sick A LOT, especially after a relocation for some reason. Be sure to have back up childcare in place as sick children are not allowed to attend daycare.[/quote]
