Our Office of Off-Campus Services supports students in their off-campus housing search by providing information on local rental listings, rates, and leasing agent contact materials. Additionally, Off-Campus Services provides educational programs, individual advising, and referral resources for students with questions or concerns related to landlord or tenant, roommate, or other issues related to living off campus. Members of the graduating class of 2024 are the first class to fully experience the SecondYear Experience (SYE). In support of the SYE, you will live in a College House for your first four semesters, allowing you to fully integrate into the Penn community. Course units (CUs) or class standing will have no bearing on the requirement.
