HOUSING IS AVAILABLE FOR THE 2008-09 ACADEMIC YEAR
To help meet the demand for University-assigned,
graduate student housing, Stanford is temporarily leasing units from two nearby,
off-campus apartment complexes that it in turn sublets to
continuing and new graduate students at substantially reduced rental
rates. Leasing and assignment of apartments are being coordinated
by Community Housing, with financial support from
the Provost. Housing for 140 graduate students is being provided for the 2008-09 academic year. Stanford is in the process of phasing out this program, as the Munger Graduate Residences will be open and ready for full occupancy by the beginning of the 2009-10 academic year. This program will be ending at the end of the 2008-09 academic year.
Applications for off-campus housing for 2008-09 are still being accepted, with the understanding that the housing is only available until the end of the spring term. On the application, each person indicates the latest move-in date that is acceptable to them. The application remains active for all assignment rounds until the person is assigned, they withdraw their application, or their latest possible move-in date passes.
In addition to matriculated graduate students, enrolled postdoctoral scholars and enrolled visiting scholars may apply.
New Applicants to Subsidized Housing for 2008-09
If you need housing for the 2008-09 academic year and are
not currently living in off-campus University-assigned housing, application
information is now posted (see below). All new
and continuing matriculated graduate students are eligible to apply. Priority is given to students who applied for on-campus housing through the 2008 Lottery and were not assigned. Continuing students have priority over new students. These apartments will only be available until the opening of the Munger Graduate Residences.
All apartments available through this program for 2008-09 are unfurnished shared apartments at the Oak Creek and Stanford West apartment complexes. They are located off of Sand Hill Road on the west edge of campus. Utilities are not included except for garbage pick-up at Stanford West. A room in a 2-bedroom apartment for 2008-09 will be $933 per month. A room in a 3-bedroom apartment for 2009-10 will be $842 per month.

the assignment process; they do not know anything about
the process or your chance of assignment. For any Stanford-specific
