SCAM ALERT!!

As recent as 4/30/2009, several people have been contacted by a potential renters requesting to rent or sublease an apartment or house from Santa Clara University students. These renters are usually from Europe.  They claim to have sent a check in the mail for over the amount of the rent or deposit. They may offer to direct deposit into your account or send travelers checks or a second party check. The renter will request their deposit or rent be returned, but their check will be fraudulent.

THIS IS A SCAM - DO NOT SEND BACK ANY FORM OF PAYMENT/MONEY.

Living Off-Campus

Have you considered on-campus housing for next year?

Here are a few reasons why on-campus housing is a great option:

  • Be a part of a dynamic community with great neighbors!
  • Live close to class, the library, and the gym and don’t worry about daily parking hassles!
  • Pay one all-inclusive room & board charge. Forget shopping, cooking, monthly bills and subleasing responsibilities.

We currently have various accommodations available on campus. If interested, apply online, via ecampus, by following the housing link. Once your application is received, a Housing staff member will contact you to review your options. Feel free to also visit the Housing web site at www.scu.edu/housing.

Additional Resources

This information is designed to provide you with listings and links to off-campus housing information. Keep in mind that Santa Clara University does not inspect, assume responsibility for, or endorse a particular landlord or agency by listing it. The presence of the name of a landlord is no representation of quality or safety, just as the absence of a landlord's name is not a reflection of the quality of the landlord. The Office of Student Life is not a referral agency, but a center for dispersing off-campus housing information.
