My experience with *anything* UMD is ten and more years old at this point, But the 104 bus runs from the station to the middle of campus literally EVERY FIVE MINUTES - http://www.transportation.umd.edu/schedules.html

And as far as apartments, etc., you've been to the DC suburbs - and all due respect, Prince George's Co. isn't nearly as upscale as Montgomery. So there are more than plenty of complexes and towers and single apartments and just people renting basements and such. Bottom line is, getting a place to live is like the least difficult thing about all of this. Especially if you basically approach it as a job that you're commuting to, just, instead of living in the suburbs, and going downtown, you're doing it the other way around.

Yeah. Though my sister lived in people's basements, and I have to say I'm not terribly keen on that experience. Her last place was nifty, had a turret window and all, but the electric fixtures were lacking. She melted the plug to a lamp because it was plugged in to the same outlet as a space heater. O_o

This is all 2 years off, if at all, but I like getting all the information I can in advance. Yay planning.
