HOUSING
            So what is the most economical housing arrangement for Western students?  When you are considering where to live, ponder this fact for awhile: To stay in the residence halls it costs $900 per month for one person. 

That amount seems a bit steep for what dorms are, one step above jail cells if you ask me.  On-campus apartments cost more than that.  Through my research, I learned that The Pointe at Western is by far the most economical for students. 

For a 4x4 (four bedrooms, 4 baths) apartment at The Pointe, it costs $315.  The leases are individual.  This means that each person is responsible for paying $315 if they live in a 4x4.  At The Pointe, water, trash, cable, and internet are including in your rent.  The Pointe is one of the few that has all those amenities included in the price.
