Why did I Choose Centennial Place: I chose to live here because the location is perfect. It is walking distance from the college which means I don’t have to take public transportation to go to school. In addition, security is next in line that I considered. They have the guest sign-in and sign-out for monitoring who is going in and out of the residence. And lastly, the convenience, because everything is in one place already. For instance, the gym, laundry room, study areas, common kitchen, movie theatres, game rooms and a lot more!

6. Pay extra on your debts/loans.
