[Finding a place to live]
Discounts for Graduate Students
Realtors and rental properties with discounts and specials for graduate students.
IU Real Estate
IU Real Estate rents houses and apartments that are designated only for IU graduate students, staff and faculty. These tend to be in better shape than the properties for undergrads and closer to campus than many other realtors. Also, renting from IU means your rent is charged to your bursar bill each month (which you can pay online) and IU maintenance is reliable and only a phone call away.On-campus Apartments
through IU Residential Programs and Services
Some of you may want to live on-campus in an IU-owned apartment. These aren't the nicest or largest places to live, but they're reliable, close to campus and fairly affordable. It's a good option to look into. For details on apartments, as opposed to residence halls, look for a link to their "Apartment Housing Guide."

Are you prepared to replace your entire wardrobe in case a fire damages your apartment? What about your furniture and appliances? Renter's insurance is VERY affordable (less or around about $100 a year), and well worth the low cost for those of us who cannot afford to replace our belongings in case of a fire or robbery. Call your local insurance company for more information and price quotes.
