On-Campus: You will work with the Student Living & Learning Office to get assistance with how and when you can first access your residence hall or apartment, as well as any other matters related to your on-campus housing. 

Off-Campus: "Off-campus" refers to apartments and other dwellings for RPI students not directly managed by Residential Commons or Greek Life Organizations. For more information, visit the Off-Campus section of the Student Living & Learning website.

Exchange Visitors

Exchange visitors who do not have housing arrangements prior to their arrival can choose to stay in a local hotel while they look for permanent housing. The following hotels are the closest to the RPI campus. We recommend that you book a hotel room early as these hotels can get busy and may be sold out.
