For anyone thinking about renting and moving off-campus in the coming year or two (or for folks thinking about moving somewhere else next year and need a fresh "rental beginning"), there are many things to consider (or "re"-consider).

Find out more!

Is it really cheaper to live off-campus? How much will it cost?

Will I have more "freedom" without an RA around? What will I do with the additional responsibilities being placed on me?

So, what is this lease-thing, anyway? Is it really a legal document?

Can I study better without 40 other students living next door? Will I be motived enough to make it to campus for class, let alone to study?

These questions (and many, many more) need to be considered, discussed, and answered before you make any decision.

Plan to attend one of the following "OFF-CAMPUS 101" workshops. You won't be disappointed and you'll leave with valuable information and be prepared to make an informed decision.
