Off-Campus Housing
When to Begin Your Search
Students who anticipate an August or September move-in date should, ideally, begin their search in May. For all other months, students should begin their search two months in advance of their anticipated move-in dates. If you do not live in the Boston area, you should plan a trip to conduct a housing search before you move. It is unwise to sign any rental agreement or lease until you have visited the location in person.
There are many ways that one can find an apartment. Scanning college bulletin boards, websites, local newspapers, and word of mouth are all common search methods. While the College does not endorse any off-campus housing resources, you find a list of available resources in our resource section. It is always a good idea to start looking early and use multiple sources to ensure the best results.
