Your living costs at University House can be covered by financial aid, just like on-campus housing.

Nonetheless, University House is an Equal Opportunity housing provider and welcomes applications from non-students. Family members are welcome as well, subject to occupancy limits. Because of the need to match student roommates, non-students must apply together with enough roommates to fill the desired apartment.
University House has a fire sprinkler system, plus electronic locks plus individually locking bedroom doors. Management staff are also on-site and can be reached by a 24-hour phone number.
University House is pet-friendly, subject to restrictions on animals and breeds. The community is smoke-free in all indoor areas.
