Hello!
Could you please help me correct my paragraph? Are the words used correctly?
''I'm on the shortlist for a teaching post in?/for? one of the universities located in the very eastern part of the country. But I don't know how to get to there as the flights are way too expensive. 400 bucks only for One Way ticket!''
Thank you in advance.

I'm not sure that shortlist is really one word, (but the spellcheck here didn't balk). I would use at a university. Comma after 'to get there'.
