Roughly 12,000 students attend 新加坡六合彩开奖 each year and of those, approximately 700 live in student housing. While living on campus has many benefits, 新加坡六合彩开奖 does not have a requirement that students live on campus and is often referred to as a "commuter campus" with the majority of students living outside of student housing and commuting to classes. 新加坡六合彩开奖 also does not provide family housing, so students with non-student spouses, partners or dependents would need to find housing off campus.
新加坡六合彩开奖 does not have partnership or endorse any specific housing off campus, but we hope that the information below can help students who wish or need to live off campus navigate the process of finding housing that will meet their needs. An internet search for apartments or housing in Anchorage will bring up links to explore options in the area.

Moving in a new place can be super stressful, but it doesn't have to be! The first step when moving is inspecting the premises. Set up a time with the landlord to view the property before your move-in date. Bring a camera with you to document any damages you notice and the conditions of every room. Some landlords will provide their own checklist for you to fill out or will fill one out themselves. However, keeping a record of things yourself provides extra proof should a misunderstanding arise. Take photos to prove any damages existed before you moved in. When/if you have repairs done document them and have the landlord approve them. Setting up utilities and other services will also need to be done prior to moving in. Some common expenses include gas, water, cable and Internet. Remember to ask your landlord which utilities are included with the rent.
Below is a quick move-in checklist
Living with another person and sharing the space can be enjoyable and educational. It not only decreases the amount of rent you have to pay, but it also provides some sort of social support within the home. Consider whether you want to live with a friend or stranger and see if your interests/study habits mesh. Roommates don鈥檛 always fit together perfectly. Some work well right off the bat while others need time to adjust. Keep this in mind when choosing a roommate.
It鈥檚 important to understand and respect one another in order to live harmoniously. Be aware of the other person鈥檚 schedule and adjust your habit accordingly. Be considerate; don鈥檛 have friends over after midnight if your roommate works at 6 a.m. Be courteous and care about your roommate鈥檚 wellbeing.
If you are living with a roommate, no matter who it is, friend, family or partner, you should come up with a roommate agreement. Physically writing down and signing what is expected of each other is highly recommended. Chores, rent and rules are some things you鈥檒l want to include in your roommate agreement.

When moving out, the most important thing to do is notify your landlord. Many landlords will require that this notice be given when rent is due and at least 30 days prior to move out. Give your landlord at least 30 days notice of your departure in writing and keep a copy of the notice yourself. Check your lease to make sure you aren鈥檛 violating the terms of the lease in any way by moving out. If for any reason you must move out before your lease is up, be prepared to pay additional fees. Remove all your belongings and clean the premises by the day you鈥檝e stated. Follow the terms of the lease during the process and repair or replace any items you may have broken during your stay there. If the property was furnished before you moved in, move all the furniture back to its original position. If you do not, you may be charged additional fees or lose part or all of your security deposit. Make sure you leave a forwarding address for mail.
