Qualified Off-Campus Housing 

Cornell has a 2-year residential requirement for full-time, Ithaca-based campus, first-year and second-year undergraduate students, including a required meal plan. In the second year of residency, students may live in residence halls, and are permitted to live in approved, university-affiliated housing.

Please note: Cornell University and Off-Campus Housing do not make endorsements or recommendations of any property owner, landlords, or housing units. Students are encouraged to do their own research and reach out to these organizations directly for specific details about housing availability, costs, and community expectations.
