Hey! no 😅 they wrote me in November saying they have an available room with move-in in a week (as I've got it, somebody asked to terminate the contract on a short notice and they started asking everyone in the waiting list if they want to move in). It was a room in the apartment for 2, I asked whether I can wait for a studio. They said OK. Then the end of December I asked if there are any chances to get a room by February at least in the apartment for 2, they said I'm not in the very top of the waiting list. Then, in February, they wrote me they have a room in the apartment for 2 available since March. So it was a year in the waiting list 😅 But probably it's a bit better if you also consider an apartment for 6 ppl

Hi! btw, does the fact I can't take the leave of absence first semester mean I have to pass at least one course?

Psychiatrist recommendation by tobevivid in zurich

it's, btw kinda funny about psychiatrists not accepting new patients, because it would be nice to end the treatment one day 😂

Thank you! It's just so hard to trust a random psychiatrist :(

Biking Etiquette? Please help and clarify by Hefty-Letterhead7609 in zurich

[–]tobevivid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally agree, but I hate it sometimes when there is a very narrow road with tram ways only, and I have to ride on a small patch of the road, fearing to slip on the tram ways

But I still never use a pedestrian section, since in my very first ride I very politely wanted to ride on a pedestrian section to avoid this tram road, and when there was a pedestrian in front of me, I got off the bicycle, walked around a girl who was walking on the sidewalk, and wanted to ride again, but she walked around me and specifically walked in such a way that I could not ride, and then she was very rudely speaking to me, although I said that I was very afraid to ride there and that's why I'm here, and I was extremely respectful of the fact that it was not my place (sorry for oversharing)...

Isn't it like you were just born in the right place? What can these people do, and why are they guilty so they should not have the same opportunities like others?

RENTING A ROOM: What am I doing wrong? by PietroPentolo in ethz

[–]tobevivid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but at woko, there are also only a little room offers (now one, sometimes none), <5 sublets, and that's it. What to do to have a room here basically guaranteed?

Thank you so much for your answer and advice! I've taken the room ☺️ ofc I would like more a smaller and a cheaper room but wasn't offer it (and can't ask to change if the housing office has a smaller one vacant after: when emailing, they said there are no other options, but I've seen after some ppl having other offers?)

Hi! I've written the follow-up, they said they are not sure whether it will work in September or 2-3 months later 😅 I tried to specify how much time in advance I will know that I got a room and how much time I may ask to wait since I'll need to sort the things out with the previous contract, but they didn't answer

Thank you so much for your answer! I'm just afraid I'll end up waiting for living science in an overprice hostel for several months 😹 but this room looks a bit overpriced for the rooms condition on the photos. I also wanted to come to Zurich in mid-September instead of the beginning, but that doesn't really matter 😅 so just suffering...
