Hey guys, I’m an incoming transfer student at UVA for Fall 2026 and I’m currently looking for housing 😭
I’m trying to find an apartment with:

my own bathroom and bathroom

furnished

not super old/outdated

relatively close to UVA

Right now the main thing I’ve found is The Flats at West Village, but it’s coming out to around $1300+ a month after fees/utilities and that’s honestly a lot 💀
Does anyone know other apartments/buildings I should look into that might be a little cheaper but still decent quality? Thanks!!

I just got into the College of Arts & Sciences, and I’m a low-income student (eligible for a Pell Grant with an SAI of -1500). If I receive a full financial aid package and decide to live off campus, would I receive a refund before the semester starts to help pay for housing?

Also, if there are any current low-income students here, what has your financial aid package been like, and when & how much do you usually receive in refunds each semester?

it’s time guys !! 🥲🥲 swho got theirs yet please share your decisions (edit: I GOT IN !!!)
