As of publication in June 2025, monthly rates start from $889 per person, per month for private rental to full unit pricing up to $1,450 depending on unit type. Rates may vary throughout the lease-up season, as student housing communities typically use a tiered pricing system, with rates increasing as leases are signed. This means signing early can help you lock in lower rates before they increase closer to the school year.
