How can I find off-campus housing? |
When should I start looking for accommodation? The best time to begin looking for accommodation is at least three weeks before the start of the semester. This will provide you with sufficient time to explore multiple housing options before classes begin. For student looking to secure housing before they arrive to the United States: please note that not all housing rentals will allow you to make arrangements prior to your arrival in the U.S. |
Will temporary housing be available to me while I am searching for accommodations? Temporary accommodations will not be available on campus while you are searching for a place to stay. However, there are several hotels in the area that are reasonably priced. You will be responsible for covering the cost of temporary housing. |

How far from campus are most housing options? There are apartments that are walking distance from the university. But there are also apartments available where you will need to take at least a 20 minute bus ride. |
