honestly, it’s never too late to look for housing…

1. starting early doesn’t mean you’ll find an apt right away. by starting early, you and your future roommates will find what they like about different apt and what they don’t like.

2. b/c a lot of openings are due to seniors, a lot will want you to move in during summer, if you won’t be taking summer school or etc, keep looking. There are many decent apt but crappy ones as well. craiglist as well as just going on different property management websites are nice.

3. a lot of nice apts have waitlists - for these you have to get on the list fast, so looking early would help

from my experience, it’s never too late to ask around your friends who already live in apt and looking around yourself to get better deal for a nice place.
