Off-campus housing is available year-round. Students can choose from a variety of different housing types, locations, and prices. When considering off-campus options, students should keep the following information in mind:

• Off-campus student apartments function like a private dormitory and have easy access to Georgia Tech campus. Students will be responsible for paying the rent for their bedroom only. These apartments are always furnished and include utilities. Students will have a private bedroom but may share a bathroom, kitchen, and common area with 1-3 roommates depending on the property and available apartment.
• Off-campus traditional apartments are located throughout the city. The communities closest to Georgia Tech are Midtown and Buckhead. Traditional apartments are almost always unfurnished and the student will be responsible for paying the rent for the entire apartment as well as all utilities.
• Homestays provides students an opportunity to live with an American family in a private home. Students will almost always have a private bedroom but may share a bathroom with other members of the house. Based on the homestay option you choose, your family may also provide meals and transportation for the student.
• The off-campus residence functions similarly to a hostel but it is exclusively for international visitors to Atlanta. Students may select a private room or share a room depending on your preferences and availability. Bathrooms may also be private or shared. There will also be a shared kitchen and common space available to residents.
