It's not terribly expensive with a roommate! How much are you wanting to spend per month?

Yeah, with a roommate it's completely manageable. I was kind of shocked.

~$8000 (about $1000 more than a single in "New Grad Housing"). I dont mind a roommate at all, just thought it was still pretty expensive even with a roomy; cant tell though cuz website doesnt have any quotes...

Regents is crazy cheap.. They have special deals for law students: --LinkRemoved--

700-750/month each for a two bedroom w/ roommate. After looking at NYC/Cambridge/Palo Alto prices for the last few months that is absolute heaven.

So everyone knows, I contacted needaccess and was informed that if you can't get some information just explain so in the student special circumstances section.

Look at the prices for the graduate student housing.. Decent apartments for even cheaper than that. I would definitely try to get some with the school if not for the fact I plan on having a SO living with me who wont be a student.
