Considerations

• What type of housing is common/available in this location?

• Of those options, what might be the best option for me?
• What is a reasonable housing budget for this location?
• What are the various neighborhoods of the city and how close are they to my

(potential) work site?

• What will be my means of getting around? Walking? Biking? Public Transportation?

Addressing your Boston housing while you are away on co-op

Students who live off campus are typically signing a lease for the standard 12 month term. What should you do if you want to accept a beyond Boston co-op that would mean relocating before the move-out date on your lease? Set up an appointment with OCHSS! Bring your lease and we can walk you through your options, including how to go to about subletting your apartment.
