an sisterfriend in need of assistance

[shani]

Hi, I have been on GC for sometime now and I have chat with some very nice helpful members of DST. I have ran into a bit of bad luck and I need some suggestions. The problem is I'm a freshman at Howard University and because of the large student body, the school doesn't have housing for all of its students and I'm one of the 1,000 without housing. I have been looking for an apartment in the DC area and no one wants to rent to me because I'm a student and my parents are unable to help me. I'm just looking for suggestions on other solutions so if anyone has any please e-mail me or post an response.

Thank You
