Onward!
I wanted to know everyone's thoughts on moving to a new city. How do you plan on finding a place to live (or how did you, for our experienced grad students)? Will you visit the city, or will you just pick a place online? I'm sure some of you are in a similar position as me, where I own pretty much some clothes, a laptop, and a mattress. Are you all just going to craigslist it for some furniture? Would you recommend getting a roommate for the first year, or flying it solo? What month is a good time to start looking for a place to live (not too soon because I'm not moving till the fall, but I don't want all the good places to be gone)?
I'm so excited to get back to taking classes and doing new research!
