Housing Referral Students are responsible for securing their own accommodations. The ISC does not reserve or secure accommodations, but it can assist you with information regarding available housing opportunities. If you wish to live on campus, you must write the Housing an d Residen tial Life Office and request a housing application. You do not need to wait to be accepted to the University to apply for housing. All residence halls include a variety of meal plans.
Demand often exceeds supply, so request an application as soon as possible.
Most international students prefer to live off-campus in nearby apartments, rented houses, or private homes. In this case you will probably be required to sign a lease. A lease is a legal document which binds you to pay rent during the period indicated on the lease. Never sign a lease until you fully understand your legal responsibilities. If you move prior to the lease's expiration, you will remain legally liable for the rent due until the expiration of the lease.
