That is not where he got accepted to college, get it through your cheese filled brain. You're crossing from uneducated to racist in this comment. Mods here are aggressive, you'll likely be gone soon.

Ad Hominem. This has nothing to do with race.

He could buy a used car and just drive 20 minutes. It would be the smarter thing to do. He can sleep easy and not worry about craziness waking him up every other night.

I'm 35, "ad hominem" just outs you as a highschooler. Your solution to the kid coming here for the first time is to have them buy a car and drive 20 minutes in New Jersey to get to Newark? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

In this case, it's what most smart people would do.

Thousands of people who work in Newark and go to schools in newark, don't live in Newark. Heck, I even know city workers who keep a cheap rental room in newark for official address, but live outside of Newark too.

Quit acting like it's far fetched.

So there are cheap enough rooms to rent that this makes economic sense and yet you believe they need to spend over $2k per month on rent? To be clear, your solution is to have someone who has never seen the US to move to NJ and use a car to commute, do you have any idea how expensive their auto insurance would be? Isn't your mom calling from upstairs for lunch or something ?

I lived in 3 different apartments from studio to 3 bedroom over 8 years living in Newark where I earned my grad degree and still work for the state government. Salaries for public employees are public. Almost no positions would make fiscal sense to do this over.
