Apartment style living is an independent living experience in which students are self-sufficient with respect to cooking, cleaning, etc.
Our apartments are fully furnished and offer single bedrooms with a shared living room, bathroom, and kitchen. Kitchens contain a full-sized refrigerator, stove/oven, sink, and cabinets. Students provide their own microwave (less than 1,000 watts) if they want one. Automatic dishwashers are not permitted.
While the apartments are furnished, students do need to provide their own bedding, cooking items (pots, pans, plates/utensils, etc.) as well as paper towels, toilet paper, garbage bags and cleaning products. See our What to Bring guide for more details.
Most apartments do not have air conditioning. Students are welcome to bring fans but air conditioners are not permitted.
