I'm getting scurrd
. I had applied, and visited the Brandon and was told back in March I was on the waiting list and "on the map" whatever that means and that they would contact me in April for an interview. Well april is half gone and I planned to move in in early May so I called and they told me it's still a possibility but so far none of the residents have move-out plans yet and all rooms are full. So basically to get a plan B. If this is for a summer internship would a sublet be best probably? I'm nervous! I can't visit to look at anything and I don't want to look to feverishly incase I do get a room at the Brandon.

I'm moving next year and I am looking into living somewhere less central but still convenient and safe. But then, maybe paying for transport would make it as expensive as living in zone 1..
so Im looking at places like unite that offer student accomodation.
