Dear Mike,
How're you, my friend? We haven't met each other since we got together. Hope everything is OK at your end. I have just checked the email regarding your enrolment in the Pharmacology course at Ain Shams university and I am glad to give you some tips about finding a place to accommodate in during
this
semester. I am writing this
email to inform you about my experience, recommendations and mistakes that have been done in previous years.
Firstly
, I finalised my Statistics diploma in the same educational institute last
year and resided in the university's dormitory. The main Pros of accommodation were its affordability and convenience; however
, there were a few cons such
as the shared bathroom among learners. I can provide you with some tricks regarding procedures to mitigate the previous dilemma in a smart way to have a comfortable stay.
Secondly
, I can recommend to you several online platforms such
as the official page of the college, which has posted plentiful advertisements on the available rooms. Another tool to consider is to meet the head of the registrar's office, who is in contact with the real estate office. Hence
, I believe that you should exert some effort to find something suitable to live in the soonest.
Finally
, please make sure to check the reviews and ratings of potential residential sites before making any decisions. You should pay a deposit in advance to confirm the booking of the neighbourhood and to set a contract with the room's landlord to protect your rights. Unfortunately, most young learners miss the previous steps when choosing accommodations and various conflicts have been done without their parent's supervision.
I look forward to hearing new updates from you. Please let me know if there are any further
inquiries.
Love,
