[quote=Anonymous]OP - It sounds to me that she really wanted to reserve her place among her friends and that outweighed her financial considerations. It is understandable how her emotions could have come down heavily in favor of that. You've gotten a lot of feedback about how she could sublet, etc... The other side of that coin is that it can lead to room mate contention which means a good group can break down. We've paid multiple years now where the apartment is not 100% used but it has really worked out. It's a harmonious living situation, there's no move in or out, no theft from strangers, no worries about where to live for internships in the area or going to and from. That is DC's home until graduation. It is not the most financial prudent way for sure but for DC and us it's worth it in terms of less headaches. BTW - For DC's college, dorm living is actually more expensive and definitely more inconvenient.[/quote]
