Im a high school student going to lakehead thunder bay in the fall, and currently applying for residence. I’m going to be in dorms and hoping to be in the bartley residence, maybe prettie. I’m just wondering how it is and the layout, as well as laundry room stuff etc. I’m also wondering how the quiet houses are, i’m on the fence about either a normal room or one in a quiet house. Are the normal ones usually already pretty quiet ? i’d like to be able to make friends in the residence and was wondering if that would change anything.
I also want to be able to play music out loud, not anything super loud but just without headphones, a bit stressed about having to be super quiet all the time if going to quiet house.

Hello fellow students,

I will be moving from BC to Thunder Bay for law school.

I have been looking at couple of rental companies and noticed that most require rental application with a lot of personal information even before viewing.

I am okay with sharing my current place, employment and landlord information, but find it bit odd that they are asking for two references, bank name and branch, and emergency contact, especially without telling me if they have vacancies. I would also have to consent to credit check.

I have been a life long renter and never had to provide that much personal information in Metro Vancouver before knowing any vacancies or viewing a place. Has anyone used these companies before? Did you have any issue or were you able to find a place once you filled out the application?

RTLDR: rental companies asking for application with a lot of personal information without letting me know of vacancies. Asking others who have used these types of companies for their experience.

Hi all! I will be moving to thunder bay and will be attending bora laskin campus, I was wondering what other people have worked? When did they start applying? Any advice is appreciated!

Im having a hard time trying to figure out what courses I should be taking for the summer transition courses. Can someone help me out with the required courses I need to be taking please?
