Modern apartment life in an area of older apartment buildings is available in the Bradford and in Ivy Hall. All utility costs are included in the rent. The Homewood reopened in September 1997 and accommodates approximately 220 graduate and undergraduate students in a location convenient to the campus. The building also houses a number of University offices and space for student-oriented retailers. University housing affords students the opportunity to establish residence without having to rent through a commercial landlord.
Furniture includes a bed, desk, chest of drawers, mirror, sofa, table, and chairs.
All University housing is maintained by the University and patrolled by Campus Security. Some students find suitable non-University housing in the area surrounding the University. Available housing ranges from row houses subdivided into apartment units to modern high-rise buildings where individual apartments are available for a student alone or for groups of students. There are many stores in the area and opportunities to become involved with local organizations. The Housing Office provides comprehensive services to students who wish to live off campus.
