Choosing the right apartment for yourself and your friends can be a pretty tough decision. You want to find a place close enough to campus so you don’t have to get up two hours before your 9:00 a.m. class, yet far enough away from all the noise so you can study for the three exams you have next week.

You want a place that is affordable, and yet is still one-hundred times nicer than all of your friend’s apartments. (Sorry no apartments with cool green stoves and refrigerators available)

You want big rooms, nice carpeting, 24-hr. management (when you lock yourself out on Friday afternoon and all your roommates went home for the weekend.) You want quality at a reasonable price.

Besides you’ve got more important stuff to be doing, like proof­ reading that paper you just finished for spelling mistakes.
