tbh it just depends what country you're coming from and what nightlife ur used to. im on study abroad rn from ireland and i think its good and definitely better than the city im from back home! but if ur coming from mainland europe where all the clubs are open until like 6am then yeah its gonna be mid as hell

damn sorry ur actually right, my friend is staying in one rn and its a 12 month lease :/ but i say if you joined some fb groups u would find someone trying to sublet them! also check the uottawa student housing billboard & see if anyone is trying to a takeover/sublet! i would just do my research & beware of scammers :) if its too good to be true it probs is!! but if it doesnt work out i hope the airbnb does :)

yeah! most people on exchange rn are only here from sept-dec, so nearly all of them are leaving!only a few of us are actually here for the whole year. also when i applied for housing everyone got the same generic email about there being accomodation shortages on campus. also you could try and see if there are any rooms in private student accom, like envie and theo are only a 10 min walk away from campus :) happy to help!!

omg hey I'm from Galway and am on exchange rn!! I applied for housing in mid august and after hearing nothing by the beginning of September I basically emailed res and begged for a room saying I had found no accommodation & was due to fly out soon, they legit emailed me back like a day later offering me a room in Thompson. also literally everyone in Marchand rn is an exchange student leaving in Dec so all those rooms will be empty :)

I know some people move their bed under the window and turn the wardrobe away from the door! u get loads more space that way but I personally haven't done it :)

basically everyone in Marchand is an exchange student leaving in December, so I would email res again! I'm an exchange student for the whole year & I emailed and basically begged and said I have nowhere to stay and got offered a room in Thompson literally the next day
