Default Moving to Nevada from Michigan

Hi everyone
I am 36 years old and have no children. I will be going to Nevada State College. I am looking for work in Nevada and I do have a car. I plan to relocate there for school and not come back to michigan. I am looking an apartment in the 500 to 600 dollar range. I currently have a two year degree and looking for work in administive if possible. I would like any help or thoughts. Thanks

Just in my opinion, Nevada State College isn't a great school. I know a few people who have gotten teaching degrees from there, and they haven't been able to find jobs (going on 4-5 years now). I guess it depends on what you study. Also, be careful what you pay as an out of state student... you could live here for just 6 months and get in state residency and go to a better school like UNLV, and get a good/decent/affordable education.

The good news is that Henderson is very close to Vegas. You shouldn't have any problems finding affordable housing as there are many apartments there. Look on Craigslist, there are a lot of listings there. As for jobs, the economy is bad right now, so you may have to settle for a couple part time jobs. I would start with a temp agency like Spherion (they do a lot of admin jobs). Good luck!
