It Can Be Tricky to Find the Best Match.
The costs are high and availability is limited. The benefits are that most apartments are close to the grounds, you just have to catch the good ones before they are sold. A lot of people renew their contracts, making it difficult to find something. However, the on-grounds housing is just as nice and many are available!

Honor Code, Honor Code, Honor Code!
The honor code system is in full control. If you cheat, you will get caught and you will get in trouble. However, since everyone makes mistakes, there are plenty of opportunities to make up for them. Most of the time, if you show that you improved yourself, the punishments are not severe. In fact, the school's judiciary system is led by students, and it is there to help improve the quality of student life in many aspects.

Developer
I received the option to be a developer as I am a CS major for a winter internship. My classes at UVA, and being a teacher assistant in the subject area greatly helped my internship experience. The payment was good, but most of all the interaction provided a real work environment.
