<p>Sometimes students post in NYU livejournal looking for someone to sublet their room or apartment. I just checked and don’t see anything listed at the moment, but here is the link if you want to keep an eye on it: [NYU</a> People](<a href=“http://community.livejournal.com/nyu/]NYU”>http://community.livejournal.com/nyu/). </p>
<p>And there’s always Craigslist, as long as you are careful and do your due diligence. If it sounds too good to be true, it’s probably a scam. If you check the Craigslist Manhattan Housing listings in either the “Rooms/Shared” or “Sublets/Temporary” categories you might find something reasonable.</p>
