Housing

U-M students have a variety of residential options to choose from, although students are not required to live on campus.

Michigan Housing welcomes applications for housing from UM students.  More information, including application links, can be found here:

Students pursuing an undergraduate degree who are coming to Ann Arbor with household members are welcome to apply for Northwood Housing. Please contact [email protected] to request an application.

The Off-Campus Housing Program helps U-M students locate off-campus housing, find roommates, and handle relationships with landlords. The site also includes information about Beyond the Diag, a student-initiated program that helps increase the sense of community among students living off campus in Ann Arbor, plus valuable information on Ann Arbor neighborhoods and more.

Check out the MLive website for local news, events, and housing information.

Dining

Meal plans are available for both residence hall and off-campus residents.

Parking & Transportation

Getting around campus is easy...but parking is not. Because parking options are so limited, U-M offers many options for students without cars.

Students can ride U-M’s inter- and intra-campus blue buses for free; students may also ride free on AAATA buses through the MRide program, and use daily park and ride lots.

The Logistics, Transportation & Parking website has more information on alternative transportation, including bus schedules, bicycles, Zipcars, and carpooling, among others.

For more information, contact Logistics, Transportation & Parking.
