Crossroads – A Student Guide to Living Off Campus
This booklet, published by the Dean of Students Office, is designed to assist students in finding suitable housing, understanding a lease, and inspecting a dwelling. It also provides an overview of campus resources and a review of local ordinances, including zoning ordinance.
Township Approved Student Homes
Many neighboring townships have enacted zoning ordinances that restrict the number of students that can live together in a particular property. These ordinances also restrict where students can lawfully reside within the township.
