Living in an apartment while you’re in college can be an exciting adventure. You have a few more freedoms than you have while living in a dorm. The following are a few ways that you can make the most of your college days when you’re on your own.
Amenities
Look at the amenities that are available with apartments near UW in Madison. Some of these could include a pool, fitness room, or a common area where you can study or relax. If you can access more extras while living at the apartment complex, then you won’t have to spend the extra money on those amenities elsewhere, allowing you to save money for things that are more important.
Address
Soon after you move into one of the apartments near UW in Madison, change your address so that you’ll receive all of your mail. You can usually place a request to have mail forwarded for at least a short time until you have changed your address with those who need it, such as your bank, doctor’s office, and school.
Laundry
When you look at apartments, make sure the one you choose has a washer and dryer connection. This will save quite a bit of time and money instead of going back and forth to a laundromat during the week or on the weekend. If you share the apartment with other people, consider getting a large container of detergent so that you divide this expense instead of getting small containers and running out after a few washes.
