I just got my final gpa in it is a 2.840 but when I transfer it will be slightly lower because they do not count repeated courses like my CC does. And in Louisiana at least at the jobs i’ve had, you had to work there a certain amount of years before you get reimbursed (at least when I last worked at certain employers). I also do not know anyone there, so the roommate situation is out of the question, most people I am graduating with are going in the work field or staying and going to the local university. I know you can meet people on the internet and find roommates but how do you know you’re not meeting a serial killer? I’ve looked at apartments and the problem is you need the first months rent and the deposit which is the same as the rent. In Lafayette it’s not like that. you can find an apartment for $600 (in a good neighborhood) and only have to put $250-$300 down for a deposit. In the Houma-Thibodaux area $550 rent will get you in a real sketchy neighborhood. There is no way that I can work full time and try to find an apartment before July 15th (which is the last day I can get a refund on my deposit and the last day to fill out an exemption form so I can live off campus). I would have money for some things if I didn’t have to buy another car (yes I do need a car before ya’ll say I don’t, my car is almost 20 yrs old and not reliable).
