Often, the process of looking for housing can be an additional source of stress and anxiety for students, and there can be a perception that there is not enough inventory, so individuals need to start very early to secure housing. Although options will inevitability decrease over the spring semester due to leasing, there will continue to be plenty of options well into the summer for everyone to love where they live, and we encourage you to take time to explore your options before you sign a lease.
