Availability
If you’re interested in renting or learning more about off-campus student housing and its availability, please download and complete our Housing Information Form with your basic demographic information and housing preferences. We will do our best to meet your housing needs.
Applying to Live Off Campus
All full-time undergraduate students (registered for 12 or more hours per semester) at Ashland University are required to live on campus. A student who meets at least one of the housing exemptions may apply for off-campus housing by submitting an off-campus housing application through the Office of Residence Life.
