Commuter Students & Off Campus Housing

Off Campus Community

Being a commuter is a rich part of the 黨Ƶ history. As the University began as a commuter school and slowly transitioned to a residential campus, the role of the commuter student remains vital in who the University is today and in the future.

At 黨Ƶ University, we strive to support the needs of commuter students and off-campus residents. We recognize that the needs of students living off-campus are unique and through programs, services, and activities we aim to create a community of inclusion and support. 

For clarification, commuter students and off-campus residents truly are two different groups: commuters reside at home; off-campus residents elect to rent lodging. As an individual who travels to campus daily for classes and events, this site will provide information for both populations.

We're here to offer:

  • Programs specifically designed for commuters and off-campus residents, in addition to the programs that happen weekly which are opened to the entire campus community
  • Monthly newsletters to keep you up to date on campus happenings and upcoming events
  • Information for renters regarding your rights and responsibilities
  • Commuter lockers for a convenient way to store your books, extra clothes, or any other items
  • Lounge area with access to refrigerator and microwave
  • Golden Bear Commuter Council who program for and support commuter student life

Staying connected to all of the offerings on campus is an important component of commuter and off-campus life. Attending programs, utilizing academic resources, and getting involved are all great ways to remain an active part of the community.

Being a Good Neighbor

Living off-campus is a maturing experience, which carries certain responsibilities. Students living in the community are representatives of 黨Ƶ University and serve as ambassadors of the University.
