I received this class date, hoping to connect with classmates.
I am staying at Anatole, for sure. Hopefully we can get a bunch of people there for good study groups. I am going to be working hard every day. I have seen friends get this opportunity and not make it, and that is a horrible experience that I want to avoid.
As for why I recommend Anatole, they have the newest rooms and they are closest to the academy. It's only a 7-8 minute drive each way instead of 20-25 to Kims. That time adds up and it means you can sleep in a little longer. There's also a huge shopping center with Walmart, restaurants, etc. just north of the Anatole that is very convenient.
If you lease through Anatole directly (instead of a management company) you can also save a lot of money. They charge $100/month extra for leases less than 6 months, but it is still less than the other options. You can get a 1 bedroom if you want to live alone or try to split a 2 bedroom with a classmate to save even more money. The south phase is the newer one and was just finished about 2 years ago. If you want everything furnished and utilities included you can go through faarooms.com but you'll pay more.
