Add me to the off-campus accommodation list

Yes No
In case you prefer staying in off-campus housing (e.g. Airbnb) and you are looking for potential CreteLing roommates, do you want your name and address to be added to an off-campus accommodations list, which will circulate (only) among its members? This will permit you to find other participants with who you can share accommodations.

Buddy system:
If you attended a previous CreteLing, would you like to be considered as a buddy to a newcomer?
Yes No

If you are new to CreteLing, do you want to be assigned a buddy?
Yes No

The Buddy System's purpose is to help newcomers of any status adjust to and feel at home at the school itself, as well as in the town of Rethymnon. If you attended any of the previous CreteLings and are willing to be somebody's buddy, we will assign you to a new incoming student via e-mail. You will be expected to contact your buddy before the start of the school, tell them about your experiences last time around, and answer any questions that you can. Furthermore, you will be expected to meet up with your buddy at the welcoming reception, as well as show them around on the first day of the school, introduce them to other people you know etc. After that, your obligations will cease, but hopefully a friendship will have started.

Grants:

Would you like to be considered for a Van Riemsdijk Foundation fellowship?
Yes No
Students of the University of Crete and non-students are not eligible for a grant.

Kind Request: We would like to ask for your discretion on the following matter: If you receive financial support from your home institution to attend CreteLing, please consider not applying for a Van Riemsdijk Foundation fellowship. Our funds to award such fellowships are limited.
