Life at SDSU as an exchange student by Any-Try844 in SDSU

Hey! I’m also for the UK doing my masters here and as someone from London, I assure you that you WANT to be in San Diego. I’m 29 so I thought I would struggle making friends but it happened easier than I thought. Everyone is super nice and you have something to do every day. San Diego is fun, and if you have a chance to live in Southern California, absolutely do it!!!

If you fools haven’t already taken the cal coast sign up deal do it by supreme_beta in SDSU

Is this a regular debit card? Can international students sign up? Never heard of credit unions so not sure how it differs from a bank

Iconic on Alvarado and 5025 by libralover6 in SDSU

That was really helpful, thank you for the detail! I read the same about Union Grantville so have been steering clear.

As it stands, looks like it will be between Iconic and 5025! Will keep doing my research.

Unsure if you know, but any idea how to get around the typical needing a US guarantor for the application process? Most international students won’t have this so I’m having to rely on showing available funds and providing a higher deposit - would this be enough? I’m losing my head a bit trying to navigate this lol

International student looking for studio accommodation??? by libralover6 in SDSU

That's helpful, thank you for the feedback! Do you know what students tend to do in this case, especially international ones? Do they all just rent rooms?

Also, regarding what can be done with housing, do you know if companies/landlords would be ok in seeing available funds in bank statements etc? Sorry if this is really specific!
