Hi John, I was writing to say congratulations on getting admitted to the Computer Technical Support program at Seneca. I heard you are looking for accommodation and wanted to share some tips. As a Seneca student, I lived in a one-bedroom apartment. It was located in Scarborough and was close to the university. It had a lot of grocery shops nearby which was convenient for me. I wanted to provide some suggestions on where to look for housing.

Firstly

, check with the university whether they have a room in their hostel.

Secondly

, look for housing advertisements on local websites like Kijiji. There are probably your best options when looking for accommodation. I wanted to remind you about students' bad decisions when choosing accommodation.

First

, try to find a place near the university, which can save you a lot of travel time.

Also

, ensure restaurants are nearby so you can have a meal when you are not in the mood to cook. I hope all of

this

was helpful for you. Take care, Imtiaz Chowdhury
