My Experience Becoming a Freshman at UT Tyler prt. 1: Housing
Coming to a new place is always terrifying, obviously.
I had no idea what to expect moving hours away from my home and family to Tyler. I tried to do a lot of research and see where I was going to live, what there was to do, what the people might be like, everything.
Every time I come to work I feel awesome that I can help someone with making their college experience by sharing mine. However, some people don't know to call or what to ask when we're on the phone with them.
So here are some things I had questions about when it came to making decisions about financial aid to housing to just where to hang out.
If I tried to stuff all of that information into one blog, it would be way too long, so here is the topic for today:
Housing was one of the things I was most excited about getting done. I was so ready and so excited to get out of my house and be on my own (no offense Mommy).
There are a lot of options when it comes to living on or off campus.
It's required here at UT Tyler that freshman live on-campus if they live more than 50 miles away.
I know it's a good money saver to live at home and commute if you live close enough, but your freshman year I definitely feel like you should live on campus.
That's not to say that you won't have a good experience living off-campus at all, because I have a lot of friends that commute here. (You'll be the one everyone calls for their kitchen and when people want to go out on weekends)
But when you take into account convenience and parking and just the freshman college experience, I'm so thankful I live on-campus.

Courtney's College Vlog: Off-Campus Housing
This is a tour of my off campus apartment near The University of Texas at Tyler. On-Campus housing is not the only way! Off Campus housing is what I have found to be the best fit for me and I encourage everyone to give a try towards the later part of their college career. There are perks to living both on and off campus, but for me living off campus has allowed me to gain more independence, live by my own schedule, and have the ability to make my apartment my home! Let me know what you think!

Anybody Looking For Off-Campus Housing?
Great places to live off campus, but close to campus:
The Reserve
Cambridge
Summerwood
I personally live at the Reserve. It is a great place to live in Tyler if you are going to the University. It was built about a year and a half ago and comes fully furnished (even with a 40-inch flat screen in the living area).
You can choose from a 2 bedroom, 3 bedroom, and 4 bedroom option. They will even assign you roommates if you do not have any preference. Comes with a pool and hot tub, workout room, computer lab, and small movie theater. It is about a 1/4 of a mile from the campus.
