Samesies for Deacon's Station and Alaris, if anyone has visited those. Thanks!

Re: Wake Forest c/o 2017 (2013-2014)
The people I spoke to at Crowne said it's really hard to get an apartment at their property of you wait until the house hunt because that's when everyone does it. They told me to get on the waiting list ASAP for an august move in (and this was in March)sunnyd101 wrote:Thanks for the responses! So you guys think I should reserve a Crowne apartment?

Re: Wake Forest c/o 2017 (2013-2014)
Try now. Supposedly all the Crownes are pretty reputable and the price to get on the waiting list is really cheap. Crowne was the only one I visited (heard horror stories about Deacon Station) and it was the only one I needed to visit. It's on the "pricier" side, but where I live now it is insanely cheap compared to what I pay -- especially if you get a room mate.sunnyd101 wrote:Thanks for the responses!

Seconded on Alaris. Crappy quality.cmroberto wrote:I visited crowne oaks and park before withdrawing from wake. both were clean and beautiful. Alaris could not have been more different.
