lilmems Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Hey, I'll be starting the dual degree program at Glenside too! Do you know if you'll be applying for graduate housing or going off campus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED2596 Posted January 23, 2019 Author Share Posted January 23, 2019 Probably going off campus. It tends to be cheaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmdpac Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 I used to work in that area as a medic. Do your research carefully. Avoid Lynnewood Gardens completely. Stay out of North Philly. Find something on the Montgomery County side of the border. Avoid Lynnewood Gardens like the Plague. Oak Summit right next to campus is also kinda sketchy... at least it used to be. That place was a maze with no sprinklers. A fire there would be catastrophic. Avoid Lynnewood Gardens. Have I mentioned that part yet? Stay on the MontCo side of the line. Good luck with school. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I want to get as close to campus as possible, but it looks like it's that or the Oak Summit apartments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
escho Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Hi I'm also looking for roommates & housing! I'm in the dual degree program as well. Has anyone made a Facebook group or anything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryp Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Also looking for roommates off campus! Would love to be fairly close. I’ll be in the PA program, not the dual degree. Does anyone have information about houses in the area? Thanks! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EKM987 Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I was recently accepted off the waitlist and will be attending the PA program (not the dual degree). I'm also looking for roommates off campus! I would be interested in a house or apartment in a safe neighborhood but I don't know much about the area, if anyone has any insight!?

CWell1901 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Y'all might want to consider reaching out to the Salus page, too! The schools are practically right next to one another Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if this will be seen but it was worth a shot... is there a particular reason you suggest to avoid Lynnewood Gardens? I am matriculating in May and it seemed like a good options, and there were many positive Google reviews, so I was just wondering why you say to avoid it (very strongly LOLZ).
