Friendly 22 year old girl studying in Amsterdam in 2016 and looking for a room to rent

I am looking to move to Amsterdam in late August or early September 2016 to study a Masters in Political Economy at UvA. I am looking for a reasonably priced room to rent in a furnished apartment or house share, ideally with 3 or less housemates (I don't mind sharing with just 1 other person). Ideally looking for something within biking distance of the University or with good public transport links - but it doesn't have to be right in the centre.

I am from Nottingham in the United Kingdom and recently completed my undergraduate degree at Newcastle University. I am clean and tidy, do not smoke, and have no pets. I am friendly and open to meeting new people.
