Is UW Still Affordable?
Things will be different next year for UW senior Vincent Kwan.
When the lease on his U-District apartment ends in August, Kwan will pack up and move back in with his parents on Beacon Hill. Each weekday, he鈥檒l bus 30 minutes to and from class. He said he鈥檇 like to live closer to campus, but just can鈥檛 afford it.
鈥淚t just sucks thinking about money,鈥 Kwan said. 鈥淚鈥檓 kind of discouraged thinking about my future and education right now.鈥
