If there is a spot, I will be living in dorms. If not, I would have to look for an off-campus housing. I come from Saudi Arabia, specifically a city called Jeddah. We see some wild stuff here, but idk how that would compare to Richmond yet. I’ll defiantly be making a vin diagram of the two cities once I arrive there lol.

Ah, cool. I actually have an acquaintance from Jedda. He's a sci-fi author, and joked about Jeddah from the Star Wars universe. He's actually getting one of my books translated into Arabic.

There are but VCU specifically has a decent Kuwaiti population at least in my experience, met a lot of them that stayed in or around the John Marshall downtown.
