[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They found it stressful? Oh dear, we better smooth anything away that might be stressful. God forbid we allow some stress to get in the way of them preparing to be adults…[/quote] I may have made the comment, and I did not assist in the process. I just know that by January of first year everyone gets a 'no' on the housing lottery. Current leases haven't been given up so calling around it sounds like finding housing is impossible. Over the next two months he did find a house to take over via word of mouth, and two roommates to go in with. It worked out, but yes it was a lot to take in, and it's not as if we had as parents had any insight into an out-of-town housing market we could impart. It's more expensive than dorms, of course. His share is $1100 per month plus utilities, year round. 10% rent increase each year. My other DC had guaranteed housing, and that was better.[/quote]
