If you mean April 2nd, then yes.

So... I never thought there would be so many random GMU fans in downtown Philly.

But I sure did have my Villanova law shirt on.

Are you set in stone with Villanova?

[langdonbadger]

I'm pretty much set. Too much upside + scholarship money = set.

Villanova's fact sheet says that 61% of the students are from OOS. Does the student body consist of a lot of Villanova UGs?

I've only met a few in my sections. I definitely see more OOS students. But I could be wrong.

You're a student at VLS, right? Any good recommendations on where to live? I have the student living packet, which is a great help. I've also been recommended to live in Radcliff House (I believe that's what it was called). Do you have any further insight?

I currently live at Rosemont Plaza. I would recommend this place to any future 1Ls. It's a little pricey (I pay $1015 a month because I have shitty view outside the window and $50 a month for parking inside the garage). The rent is for a single bedroom apartment and includes all the utilities (including TV). However, it doesn't include internet (I pay $35).

So far, living close to school has been awesome. (e.g. no need to rush to class because it's literally a 4 min drive using the backroads to school) Also, Rosemont Plaza is super quiet because majority of the tenants are old folks.

Another place I would recommend is Radnor House (right next to Rosemont Plaza). Couple of my friends who are also 1Ls live there and like it a lot.

Both apartments are also very close (walking distance) to the Rosemont train station (to go to center city).

Hope this helps

It does. Radnor house is what I was told about. A thou is a lot to be paying a month! God bless you, lol. I appreciate the information.

If you go through Radnor, I'd recommend shopping realtors. The one that I chose (recommended by VLS IIRC) shows pretty bleh rooms. However, my friends room (from a different realtor) is ballin' in comparison, and is actually 50 or 75$ cheaper a month I think.

Agree with nooy, Rosemont or Radnor are by far the best for first year because they're the closet to the school and to the train station.

Yeah, but I don't have to worry about leaving the water running or the lights on. I'm not a environmentalist and am lazy so I just run the dishwasher every time I have to do "dishes" (even if its just a pot). Also, I don't have to worry about paying the bills on time and shit. Just one less thing to worry about.

Also, I get free HBO channels which is clutch at times.
