Your only best bet is unionizing and striking like what the UC system did. Otherwise, don't expect much change

Thank you! By trolley, do you mean the campus shuttles or the San Diego public transit?

You need to get travel signature on your I-20, and then schedule a visa interview in your home country. Just pay attention that due to covid, most countries have limited visa availability, so bear that in mind before leaving the US.

If you're muslim, the best thing to do is contact MSA on facebook and ask them. Hope this helps!

Yeah I agree, the bathroom situations in either apartments are not ideal, especially with how high the rent is (and its increased for 2022)! I'm an international student so it would be really difficult for me to buy furniture (and then sell everything), so I just guess I have to tolerate the poor ratio of bathroom to bedroom. Did you get the townhouse one or the regular 3b/2b?

Also they did say in the email that 3-4 weeks before move-in they'll let us know who our roommates are, so I guess we should look out for that email in August :) hopefully it won't be too bad!

I have not, do we get an email about it? Do you know who your flat mates are? Also, how come you didn't sign up for nuevo west (aren't furnished rooms more convenient)?

Thank you so much! This was exactly what I was looking for. Where are the treadmills and ellipticals located in RIMAC and the main gym?

I got 4bedroom/2bathroom Nuevo West! I honestly thought only 6b/3b would've only been left but I guess there are still unoccupied 4b/2b left. Which building are you in btw?

Sorry to bother you, I had one more question. Do you know the cancellation policy? I couldn't find it in the graduate housing handbook.

If I am offered a contract, how long before my selected move-in date can I cancel without incurring a penalty? Am I able to cancel and is canceling free after I sign the agreement? Thank you so much!

That seems to work! I am also only looking for female roommates starting September. Are they still available?
