Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Many freshmen and almost all upperclassmen students utilize off-campus housing, and there have been dozens of new
luxury housing complexes built close to campus that are specifically marketed to students. Many of these places offer
two- to four-bedroom apartments that are available on a per-person lease basis, meaning you’re not responsible if any of
your roommates don’t pay their rent. All amenities are usually included in one price: phone, cable, Internet, computer lab,
laundry facility, health facility, and, of course, a pool.


The increase in student housing has been key to the development of the city. As apartments are built, new
restaurants and stores arrive to provide products and services to the new residents and their credit cards. This construction boom has created a plush experience for students, but some of the new apartments have financially ruined students who didn’t read the lease closely or didn’t comply with a policy written in small print. The prices of these properties are comparable to on-campus housing, so living off campus seems to be the most obvious choice for many students. Plus, some of the apartments are absolutely luxurious. Many of the people who manage these properties cater to students, but be careful because some are poor landlords, and others are out to take advantage of wealthy renters.

Lots of Choices

There are plenty of choices for MTSU students who wish to live off campus. The school is located near several neighborhoods that are full of rental houses, all within walking/biking distance, and prices tend to be reasonable. There are also countless apartment buildings and complexes in close vicinity, many of which are specifically intended for students.

Dorms

Dorms are available to you if you need them. They also provide parking passes for your area on campus and there are buses that run throughout campus every 10-15 minutes so you don't have to have a car as far as getting to classes
