Leasing for 2024-25 Year 

When it comes to leasing, we approach things a little differently. In the past, we used to lease all our apartments in one go, and they were snapped up quickly! While we are grateful to be your top choice for housing, we realized that this timeline doesn’t work for everyone. That’s why, unlike other off-campus housing options, we have decided to offer several leasing periods.

Pres House Apartments is leasing in three phases. We believe that our staggered leasing schedule helps alleviate some of the leasing pressure. Housing should be about finding the perfect place that serves you.

Because demand has been outpacing our available units (60% of our residents have renewed for the past two years, leaving very few units to lease to new residents) the only remaining leases are for single rooms and shared rooms.

Let’s talk apartment details.

We offer 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5-bedroom apartments with over 15 unique floor plans. Rent an entire apartment as a group or rent a single room within one of our spacious 4-bedroom apartments. Apartments come fully furnished with utilities, internet, and cable included.

Scholarships

We understand the cost of apartment living, which is why we offer rent scholarships for residents who participate in programs that embody our mission and values. Our scholarship programs are a win-win: they also give residents unparalleled ways to connect with peers and discover new, meaningful experiences.
