Housing:
The cost of living in NYC is extremely high with studio apartments costing around $2,400. The closer you live near Times Square or Central Park the more expensive your rent will be. We highly recommend looking for another J1 to room with to share the cost of an apartment. Please note, without established credit your first and last month’s rent may be required as a deposit. HRC recommends you arrive with at least $3,000 as startup capital and to help secure housing.
