Off Campus Housing Information for International Students
International students who participate in exchange programs or who are admitted to the undergraduate program or the English as a Second Language program are guaranteed on campus housing as long as they submit the Housing License by the deadline. We strongly encourage students to live on campus because of the affordable cost, convenience to classes and other campus services, and the access to the active residential community at New Paltz. The campus cannot offer on campus accommodation to international graduate stduents.
The Center for International Programs cannot assist with off campus housing, but we can make some suggestions. It is important to remember that if you do not have a car you need to live within walking distance of the university within the village of New Paltz. There are many different choices you have. You can live in one of the many apartment buildings in town or you can rent a room in a house.

When signing a lease, students will be required to pay a deposit on the apartment in addition to the first month's rent. Sometimes the landlord will want the first month's rent, a security deposit, and the last month's rent. Be ready to pay a large amount of money up front when you move in, but realize that you will receive the deposit back at the end of your lease if there is no damage done to your rented space. You will not have to pay the last month of rent if you are required to pay it up front.
