It is your responsibility to contact those students who best match your criteria. To experience the greatest success in finding a roommate, we recommend you submit your Interactive Roommate Information Form beginning May 15. We suggest that students who are considering sharing an apartment can arrange to be in St. Louis at the same time in July to get acquainted before making a commitment. Although rental houses are generally expensive and difficult to find, some MBA students choose this alternative. Students frequently share an apartment with one or two other students to reduce their living expenses.
Most apartments require a security deposit and at least one month's rent in advance.
Rent is usually highest within a one-mile radius of the University. Most of the graduate business students live within five miles of campus, but many neighborhoods throughout the city are becoming popular as buildings are renovated and new businesses emerge. Many of these items are sold quickly, so it is best to call about the items early. New and used furniture is available. If you return a piece of furniture in good condition after you are finished with it, up to 50 percent of your purchase price may be refunded.
