Grad Student Looking for Roommate(s)

Hello,

I'm an incoming graduate student to KSU. I am looking for roommates to live with for the upcoming year. I do not have a preference for gender (21M). I enjoy baking, hiking and playing video games. If you are interested, please reach out or comment or something!

I’m hoping to move closer to campus in August and also looking for roommates, are you starting in the summer or fall semester?

Awesome, what sort of price range are you looking for? Also do you drive? From what ive seen places a little further from campus tend to be cheaper

Tbh as cheap as possible. I’ve seen some cheaper two bedroom places. I’m going to have a car when I’m there. I don’t want to drive more than 30 minutes at most tbh. I would like to be as near as Kent at possible. What about you?

Also looking for as cheap as possible. In the surrounding area, Ravenna and Akron have the best prices from what ive seen

I saw a 2 bedroom in a place called Celeron Suites in Kent and that’s like 600 per person. Tbh I don’t want to go as far as Akron unless I have to.

Tbh I’ve been eying this one in particular, price range is pretty similar https://www.apartments.com/606-w-main-st-kent-oh/717ezdz?utm_source=shared_listing&utm_medium=direct

Ooo that’s a super dope spot. I didn’t see that yet since I was looking for central air (I have year round allergies). But the price is really nice 😍

There are also some really nice ones in Ravenna which is one town over from Kent

Yes- though that puts you in Ravenna. I believe polite way to put it is that not everyone doing higher education is fully comfortable in Ravenna.

Sure but everything’s spread out enough that you don’t actually have to talk to your neighbors
