Most students, when looking for apartments, are looking for close proximity to campus. These students don’t have to look much farther than Campus View Apartments .

On game days, I could just walk to the stadium from my apartment, essentially eliminating the “where are we going to park?” problem. In addition, there’s a shuttle that runs back and forth from campus free of charge. The rent is fairly reasonable; it's $429 a month for a four-bedroom apartment, and all but electricity are included for utilities. Campus View also offers two-bedroom apartments for $550 a month. Each apartment is completely furnished with living room furniture (including a TV), a dining room table and chairs and bedroom furniture. The bed is full-size, which makes all those nights spent in the twin-size beds in the residence halls worth it. There's also a roomy kitchen and washer/dryer units, which really...
