Your SJSU Home

Where you live as a student has a big impact on your educational experience. SJSU offers multiple housing options, from traditional residence halls to Greek houses and downtown city apartments. The University Housing Services website provides information to help you find the right living situation for you. You will find a list of on-campus buildings and current rates, as well as resources for securing off-campus housing, common housing FAQs and more. Please note that all admitted first-time freshmen from outside a 30-mile radius of SJSU are required to live on campus during their first year.
