AMENITIES
(with utility allowance)
FoodUnless you’re moving to some remote city in Russia where the nearest market is a four-day journey away, you can feel safe leaving the canned goods at home where they belong. Since your college diet will consist mainly of leftover pizza anyway, you won’t have much to worry about.
School SupplieSRemember, unless you have completely overbearing professors from hell, you won’t have to worry about school supplies until you go to buy your books. The university bookstore will sell most (or all) of the supplies listed in your curriculum, along with pens, pencils and – wait for it – paper and notebooks too!
TonS oF FurniTureThe cost of moving your bodacious boudoir and the living room furniture you got on clearance will not outweigh the benefits of purchasing your interior locally… especially when you can make couches from used pizza boxes for free!
cleaning SupplieSBelieve it or not, cleaning supplies do exist in other cities and states. Yes, even the same ones you’re used to at home.
The enTire medicine and ToileTrieS cabineTWhile it’s important to bring along your prescription medications and some Tylenol or Ibuprofen, you don’t need to bring a full medicine cabinet with you. You’ll have plenty of time to head to the local pharmacy or supermarket to purchase lotion, shampoo, band-aids, etc. For the trip, just bring along the travel size.
The interesting thing about moving into a student apartment, whether it’s the first time or the third time, is that you never quite grasp the reality that there’s a grocery store, a hardware store and a corner store within immediate reach of wherever you’ll be living. This leads to severe cases of over-packing and unnecessary spending – something that plagues 3 in 4 college coeds, oh my!

Finding an Apartment
During the SeArch: try to see the units in the daytime.You’ll want to know how much natural light an apartment gets. It’s helpful to see what shape the place is in and whether more work is needed to make it habitable.
do a careful walk- through of any unit you’re serious about. The best time to ask about repairs and improvements is before you commit. Attach a list of any damages to the lease, and have it initialed by your landlord so you’re not held responsible later. This is especially important in a college town. Who knows who may have lived in the apartment before you!
take measurements.Take measurements of your larger furnishings (and take along a tape measure) to see how your things will fit… or what things you’ll need to buy. Be realistic about the move. If you have a king-size waterbed, maybe the fourth floor isn’t the best spot for you.
ask Questions.The College Rentals Apartment Tips & Checklist provides a thorough list of questions to ask.
meet the neighbors!Will you live above or below someone; do you share walls? Knock on doors and introduce yourself. Find out if neighbors are friendly, how they feel about noise, what they like about the neighborhood. This is a good person to ask about the safety of a neighborhood. Landlords aren’t allowed to discuss such things, but your new neighbor will know if the place has bad lighting or a wild Rottweiler problem.
Visit as many places as you can…so you’ll have a good idea of what your money buys. Use our Apartment Checklist as a guide to inspecting and comparing choices. Then be prepared to ACT QUICKLY when you find something you like! Lots of complexes are on the internet. While you shouldn’t rely too heavily on the web, it is a good place to get started narrowing to a list of possibilities. Check out www.collegerentals.com.
BeFore You Set out: make a shopping list.Are you looking for hardwood floors, dishwasher, washer and dryer? Do you have enough parking space for you and your roommates? Does the whole apartment need to be painted in orange and blue? You may not find everything, but it doesn’t hurt to set priorities.
coVer the bases.Many landlords will want to verify your references. Phone ahead to alert possible references, including your former landlord, that they may receive a call.
AFter You’ve FounD it: read your lease thoroughly…and make sure you understand it.
don’t be afraid to ask!
for example;• What utilities are you
responsible for?
• How is the television reception?
• Will you need cable?
• Is there reference to existing wear or damage or a penalty for breaking the lease?
• How does the management feel about subleases?
enjoy.No apartment is going to be perfect; how much you enjoy where you live is largely up to you. Meet the people at the complex, and you’ll enjoy your living experience much more than if you stay indoors, drinking alone. Hang out at the pool. Play some basketball. Throw a party. No matter how you feel about the physical space you occupy, new friends can make you feel right at home.
