- The University does not offer on-campus accommodation. The students can choose from off- campus accommodations.
Students who live off-campus are generally renting an apartment, condo, basement suite or room in a shared house. Shared accommodations (roommates) will usually have lower costs as expenses are shared. Rental accommodation prices range from $500 to over $1,000 per month.
When renting, it’s important to know your rights as a tenant (renter). You will be asked to sign a rental agreement. Understand the terms of the agreement before you sign. Things to look out for:
- Is it a lease (fixed term, usually 1 year) or a month-to-month agreement? If you are signing a lease, understand the penalty if you choose to move before the end of the term.
- What is included with rent? Your rent may include Internet and/or cable television, heat, electricity, parking, laundry, or additional storage. If these are not included, you will need to plan for these additional expenses.
- How much of a security deposit is required? This will be in addition to the first month’s rent.
- How close the accommodation is to public transportation
