Fall 2025-Spring 2026 Housing for Current 91ÉçÇø Students
Have you thought about where you will live next academic year? If you currently live on campus, you may be asking yourself "should I move off campus?"
Choosing where to live is one of life's most important decisions. Students should consider several factors when determining what is the best fit for their housing needs: budget, lifestyle, proximity to campus and job, transportation, safety, and access to resources.
Discuss your options with family and friends to make an informed decision on a living environment that will contribute to your academic success, health, and well-being.
