BostontoDC · Oct 22, 2011

Hi all!

I too will need some help figuring out the housing situation... as I will be ? moving from Boston.

Casidygirl, great advice to check out the last cohort's FB page (Georgetown University Fall 2011 ABSN) for some reason, when I tried to search on FB that page would not come up....? Any idea why? Do you need to join the Georgetown network?

Also, thanks to everyone for posting info about their neighborhoods- that has been really helpful!!

For the fall absn FB page I know ya need a member to invite you...

They don't post a whole lot, useually stuff about classes. As a class I think we should have one...

Pm me and I'll see if I can invite folk to it.

Here's one from CL:

http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/doc/apa/2660698104.html

$550 / 1br - Ahoy! Cozy furnished basement efficiency in quiet private home (American University Park/Kent)

Clean, quiet, and cozy basement efficiency with separate entrance in private home/excellent neighborhood. Small (8 x 11 ) bedroom/sitting area, tiled shower bath, kitchenette with microwave. No windows, alas! Convenient to American University, Sibley Hospital, bike path, canal, and bus lines. It is not near the metro but has lots of street parking! This is a great place for someone who needs a tidy place to stay --think ship's cabin--but will not accommodate lots of STUFF. W/D accessible. Utilities not included. Available now. Lease and references required. No pets, no smokers.

Arizona Ave, NW at Cathedral Ave NW

If this address that you posted is where I think it is (I lived in DC for 39 years before moving to the burbs) It is pretty convenient to MacArthur Blvd which runs straight into Reservoir Rd which is where Gtown is. That might be good if you don't want to drive but it is pretty far from any metro. Feel free to run stuff past me as I am a native washingtonian and know a good bit about the city.

Wow, the posts on this site really have slowed down from when we were all waiting for out acceptance/denial email!!

Darkwater- apparently I cannot private message you because I haven't put up 15+ posts...

Regardless, do you guys think we should start our own FB page for our class.

BostontoDC: Indeed. I for one returned to the bar brawl of micro and chemistry that is my semester. Would hate to have gotten it, gotten the scholarship, and then not be able to go. 'Tis my biggest fear at the moment.

As for a FB page, sure! The fall class seems to put theirs to good use... so I vote yes, but I can't offer much support right now.

Darkwater and I are in the same boat - Micro and chem are getting rather intense and although I would just like them to be done right now - I still have to get them done. I am still around though - just trying to focus on my classes and take a CPR class etc before January.

Has anyone gotten a packet with background check/drug screen etc forms?

I have not received anything of real substance since the original acceptance emails.

Sam said that once they have your deposit they will send you a bunch of stuff. I guess they want to know that you are coming before they pepper you with paper.
