If you are staying at the UofM, anything along Pembina or downtown would be good as that is on the major bus route to the University (#60). So you could live in Osborne Village, the East part of Corydon or pretty much anywhere down town and have an area of good walk ability and easy access to the bus system.
let us know if you need any more info.
