A few girls have wondered about how in the world you find housing in the Big City. I got really lucky. I forgot the date for NYU summer housing registration and totally missed the deadline. So I scrambled around and after a LOT of searching, found an awesome master bedroom on Craigslist.
Granted, the $2250 rent was a little much so I shared the huge room (and a bed!) with one of my best friends. The $1,125 a month I paid is almost the exact same cost I would have paid had a lived in an NYU dorm. Believe me, I got the better deal! My beautiful apartment in Chelsea was only 2 subway stops from my job in Times Square - not to mention the 24/7 security, terrace and workout facilities!
So if you are looking for a place to live this winter or spring, my advice is to check Craigslist - and be persistent! It took me a month to find the perfect fit!
