It also lists contact offices for the 27 houses of Campus Cooperative Residence Incorporated, and for 14 fraternities. All of those residences and houses are operated independently of the University of Toronto but give priority to post-secondary students. Application for a unit in the Married Student Apartments which are primarily for full-time students with dependent children should be made through the University Housing Service which acts as the admissions office for the complex.
Unfurnished apartments are available on a yearly basis up to a maximum of three years.
The housing services include a registry of listings primarily from city landlords advertising available rooms, and occasionally flats, in shared houses located within about 30 minutes travel time from classes. While the ideal time to use the registries in preparation for the winter academic session is a couple of weeks prior to an occupancy date of August 1st or October 1st, many students are successful in arranging to rent from September 1st even though their search in late August coincides with the period of highest demand for student housing throughout the city. Listings in the campus registries change daily as places are rented and new ones advertised, thus information on specific long-term rentals cannot be mailed out.
