I've learned more by doing than any 4 years of college undergrad has taught. 

I lived in Austin for 7 yrs from 1982-89 finished undergrad and stayed on.

One thing I decided to do is pay off the whopping 4.5K I had left on my student loans from undergrad (no debt from grad school since I paid up front for that).

Hopefully what ever undergrad degree you have is the same field you are getting a job in.

What I also like is that the courses are dynamic, so it changes with the times...trends, laws, tax code, new strategies...unlike my undergrad and graduate education that I gained over 10 years ago and tens of thousands of dollars...international business has changed so much, but I'm not getting the updated changes now am I?

Funny you bring up thinking outside the box because today I read that the same college will be expanding there graduate programs and so the increase in grad students will most likely off-set the reduction in the  undergrad population..

I live in the Athens area, and I can attest that the market is really saturated when it comes to rentals geared towards undergrads.

For undergrad, I got in-state tuition in California after living there for one-year.

I am currently an MBA candidate at Rice University slated for graduation in 2020 (Undergrad from UH - Go Coogs). 

NRV is strong, but if you’re going into it looking for specific cash flow numbers it’s historically tight ... and rents are still kept somewhat low due to how much undergrad rental inventory there is.
