No commitment but they do space out the payments. Your final $7500 only comes to you at one year.
You can live in Tanzania if you can hack the commute. Short call reserve is just two hours though which in Seattle rush hour traffic can be problematic if you live in Snohomish county or the north end. People have been known to drive to SeaTac, check their bags, and then just hang out in the city near the light rail. Even from the U Dub, it’ll get you back to the airport in 45 min or so.
Apartments are available but relatively expensive compared to LAX or PHX.
