  1. Look for places that fits your needs.聽 Some things to keep in mind:

    • Transportation
      • Consider how you will get from your home to your campus
      • Ensure that the distance and location reflects your ideal mode of transportation (walking, cycling, busing, driving a personal vehicle.聽聽
      • If you are walking, remember that Nova Scotia has all types of weather.
      • If cycling, check to see if there are bike lanes and a place to store your bike. Bike parking is available on all of our campuses. The Town of Truro and the Village of Bible Hill do not have any official bike lanes.
      • If bussing (), ensure that your accommodations are on or near a bus route that can get you to and from campus. You can use your聽UPass聽to get around.
      • If driving a personal vehicle, ensure that your accommodation has parking options. Also, you will need to purchase a聽黄色直播 parking pass.
      • On occasion you may be in a rush, taxi services are available (e.g. Casino taxi, uber)

      • Weather
        • Check to see if your accommodation has snow removal, if not plan for a way to remove snow in the winter
        • In Nova Scotia, we also get tons of wind and rain. Ensure that your dress appropriately for the weather and that your accommodations include services to make you comfortable (AC or Heat, hurricane safe)

      • Food Sources

        • Check the availability of local food stores (Indian, African, Syrian, Middle Eastern, Asian)

      • Utilities (internet, heat, cable)
        • Find out what鈥檚 included with your rental
        • In some place鈥檚 landlords control the thermostat
        • Fees for each will vary (See Rental and Utility Costs page for more info)

      • Laundry
        • Many apartments in Nova Scotia have shared laundry rooms with coin/chip/laundry card-operated machines
        • Is having in-unit laundry important to you?
        • Some buildings do not have any laundry on-site, consider where the nearest laundromat is

      • Furnished or Unfurnished?
        • Most long-term accommodations are unfurnished
        • Think about how much you will need to set aside for furniture
        • Think about how you will get new furniture into the place? Will you need help from movers or rent a truck?聽Click here for some possible resources
