In addition to the resources below, check out the Transfer Student Ambassadors' tips on housing and commuting.

Transfer Student Housing 

University Housing

University housing is not guaranteed for transfer students. The University Housing website is the place to start your on-campus housing search.  The University Housing Office emails students who have paid the enrollment deposit with instructions on how to submit a housing application. Submitting a housing application does not guarantee that you will be offered on-campus housing. 

Off-Campus Housing

Off-campus refers to housing not owned by the University.  Living in off-campus housing does not mean that you are living far away from campus. In fact, there are a lot of options that are within minutes of the center of campus.  There are also options that are further away from campus that are accessbile with the UM and City of Ann Arbor bus systems that are free for all students.  The Univeristy runs an office that helps students with off campus housing called Beyond the Diag which helps students living off campus connect with other students.  There are aslo cooperative living options.  Learn more about both below.  

Commuting to campus for your classes and all other activities can present challenges.  Fortunately, the Transfer Student Ambassadors created a series of videos with all the advice you need as a commuter student.
