Housing Information
On-campus housing is not available for students in Freshmen Connection. Students in Freshmen Connection live at home, with friends or family in the University area, or in rental housing near the campus. There are several types of rental housing including apartment communities, group houses, and rooms in houses. Many students choose to live in communities that offer individual “by the bedroom” leases rather than ones that lease by a total unit.
Off-campus Housing Services
The staff of the University’s Off-campus Housing Services office is available to assist you with information on these and other housing options. The office can help you find housing vacancies, find roommates, and offers guidelines for a roommate agreement.
