For those looking for off-campus housing, the Department of Housing and Residential Education at CSUSB does not provide nor manage off-campus/outside housing alternatives. There are many resources available for finding off-campus housing.
Online listing sites such as Zillow.com, Apartments.com and Trulia.com allow you to search for available rentals in the areas surrounding of campus where students commonly reside. You can use filters to narrow down your search based on location, price, number of bedrooms, and other factors.
Market rates for local off-campus housing are as follows based on information on Trulia.com:
Market cost of one bedroom apartment: $1,830
Market cost for two-bedroom apartment: $2,125
Market cost for one-person bedrooms in private houses: $1,350
The Department of Housing and Residential Education does not manage off-campus resources. Students are strongly encouraged to use due diligence and to obtain references, read reviews, and other information regarding off-campus listings and facilities.
CSUSB does not manage, oversee, or vet any postings on non-affiliated websites or social media platforms, nor does the University oversee any local landlords or property management companies.
All cost estimates reflect estimated costs for a typical student, but actual costs can vary considerably for individual students. The university strongly encourages prospective students and their families to consider how their own costs might differ from those given in the estimates, including by seeking out cost of attendance estimates from other sources and by considering whether they will face other costs that are not listed in the estimate categories or how their veteran status might affect costs.
As noted in the Student Housing License Agreement, CSUSB assumes no responsibility and provides no insurance or financial protection for your personal property. We strongly recommend that you get renters insurance coverage. As a resident of on-campus housing, you’re eligible to purchase coverage through GradGuard’s student renters insurance program. CSUSB does not receive compensation for providing this student benefit. GradGuard’s Renters Insurance is underwritten by Markel American Insurance Company.
Claims and coverage are subject to language, limits and exclusions, and policy. Visit GradGuard.com/renters to get more information about their coverage and a quote.
