What were your living arrangements after College?

Question

Did you buy your own house?

Living with your parents?

Renting an apartment/room?

Rent-to-own house?

I would like to know what is common, or what you did soon after college...

Answer 1

I never really finished college but went back home to live with my parents after actually having my own apartment for a while.  a couple years later i returned to college and got another apartment. now of course i'm married and buying a home.

two of my sisters both lived at home for a bit after college before moving out on there own. however my older brother came back home and never left.

I think it's normal to live with your parents after college just to be able to readjust to the new world you've entered especially is you are still in the process of finding a job with your new degree.

Answer 2

Same as they were when I was in college, I had a full time job and paid for my own place, which I shared with my then boyfriend, now husband.

Answer 3

I lived with my parents for two months until I found a job and put together enough money for a deposit.  Then I rented a place of my own.  Sharing an apartment with a friend to save money would also be fairly common at this stage of life.  Several years later, I bought a small place.

Good luck!

Answer 4

living w/ parents, but still had to pay them money

Answer 5

Find a job first.
