Parents of new UCSD students beware. There is a severe housing shortage both on campus and in the surrounding area of LaJolla unless you have a $1500 per month budget for rent. Even then, very few places available. There are currently 500 people on the campus housing waitlist with little hope of getting a spot. My daughter and her roomates have applied to no fewer than 12 places and have not been approved for any. They have a $2500 budget. Since we live in Pennsylvania, she may have to transfer to another school if we can find housing soon.
