Accomodation in Florence

Hi,

I am a student and I will be travelling to Florence in Feb 2008 for completing my MA from the university of Florence, Pollo delle scienze sociali-I am looking for accomodation for 2-4 ppl and since i am on scholarship, my means are limited.

I would be glad if anyone could help me look up a decent accomodation that would be close to "Via delle pandette", or to the University area.

Anyone could contact me through this forum, if they are aware of the same or on any advice(eg are there specific student areas, student houses, is it possible to book a place so much in Advance, is it possible to book a house for almost a year etc)

I just dont want to land up in Florence and not know where to spend the night.

I have checked a couple of links but nuthing that caters specificaly to students! So help would be deeply appreciated.
