Off-Campus Housing

Looking for a place to live Off-Campus?

We list and accept ads for a variety of living alternatives from the private sector. These listings include rooms in private homes, apartments, condominiums, and roommate situations. We also provide website links and information on related services, roommate tips, and tenant rights.

Students have started an informal Facebook Group and csusm.housing(Instagram) has started listing items for sale, housing, and roommates.
Please note: CSUSM does not monitor or endorse the listings.

Looking for a roommate? Fill out this form to be included in our email newsletter to help get the word out to more current CSUSM Students.

For any specific questions or concerns please contact: offcampushousing@csusm.edu
