Off-Campus Housing at University of Puget Sound

More Cost-Effective

Even if the school is paying for your on-campus housing, off-campus housing is more cost efficient, especially if you are living with a roommate. The housing selection is nice and there are plenty of houses and apartments for rent around campus that are reasonably priced.

Great Prices but Not Accessible.

The parking is horrible in the middle of the day, with no spots even on the streets. However the free passes are great.

As Long as You Don't Get Caught...

The policy is fairly strict if you actually get caught with alcohol in your hand, but campus security is relatively light (they certain;y won't interfere with anyone unless they have reason too). The dorms are the same way: don't attract attention, and you won't have any problems.
