All Apartments Are Different

There are several choices for off campus housing ranging from very cheap to very expensive. In some apartment complexes you also have the option to pay all of your semester's rent up front and just pay for utilities monthly. You also have to pay attention to which ones come completely furnished and which ones you have buy your own furniture for. All of the apartments are within walking distance of the campus so it's okay if you don't have a car.

Dorms and Housing.

The residential suites are really nice, almost like living in a hotel. You can get a single room, which is basically a standard dorm with it's own bathroom, which is a big plus, or a quad room with a living room, 4 bedrooms, and two bathrooms. There are still traditional dorms available, although the rooms there are much smaller. On campus apartments exist too.

HAPPY BUS!!

The happy bus is an invention from god. It alone has probably saved more lives than the police on this campus. It provides transportation to students who may have had a bit too much to drink. It has saved my buddies a few times. Lets Go HAPPY BUS!
