Dear Deniz, I am happy to hear that you have been offered a place on a course at Istanbul Technical
University
. I had lived there for 5 years.
Therefore
I know almost everywhere neighbour of the
university
. I lived in Levent which is very close to Ayazaga Campus. You will
also
work there. There are different ways to go the
university
. You can use public transport.
For example
, the underground is very close to the campus. Going to school takes 15 minutes.
Although
my house had only one room, I was staying with another student. Finding a roommate was easy when I started
university
and
also
it was beneficial to reduce payments. If you do not have enough money to live alone, I recommend you live with a friend. Almost all students make mistakes when choosing a location. You will need to wake up early and one or two months later you will not want to spend your time on the roads. You need to consider that point. I explained all I know but If you have any
further
questions you call me or write an email. Take care. İrem
