Hey!

You've probably already found somewhere but here's some general advice for others with the same question.

Firstly, I'd use the Find a Home tool on this website to research Ottawa neighbourhoods to find one that matches your budget, lifestyle, etc and is a manageable distance from both school and work. Once you have a couple in mind, a great website to use is Rentals.ca. There you can set your price range, choose the number of bedrooms/bathrooms you're looking for, and look for rentals on their map view to find one in your ideal neighbourhood. This is really useful if you're dead set on living in a certain area of town (like near UOttawa) and rental websites tend to have a lot less scams than kijiji/craigslists/etc.

Make sure to contact a couple landlords whose rentals you're interested in and remember to always be diligent about rental contracts. Good luck with your future searches!
