Housing

Commuter Student Services

Commuter Student Services provides off-campus housing information and resources for commuter students. The university is located in the midst of a resort area that results in relatively high rent in the coastal towns of San Diego County: Del Mar and Solana Beach to the north of campus, La Jolla and Pacific Beach to the south. A general rule of thumb: The closer to the beach, the higher the rent. Commuter Student Services provides the UCSD Off-Campus Housing Directory, a free resource of rental and roommate listings posted by landlords and roommates exclusively for the UC San Diego community. The listings include individual houses, apartments, and condos, as well as roommates, rooms in private homes, and work-exchange situations. You must have a current UC ID card or official Letter of Acceptance to view online rental contacts. The office also provides helpful landlord/tenant materials such as sample leases, room rental agreements, and tenant request forms. Computers and a courtesy phone for local calling are available. Bus schedules, free-zone maps, and bus stickers are also available. Commuter Student Services supports commuters with quarterly off-campus housing workshops, special presentations, and a variety of community-building events. The Commuter Lounge is open twenty-four hours a day and includes vending machines, a kitchenette, board games, and magazines . The Commuter Student Services Web site allows for twenty-four-hour access to the resources offered, including the online rental listings and downloadable landlord/tenant forms. Services are available to registered students, staff, faculty, and alumni of the University of California only. Commuter Student Services is conveniently located on the first level of Price Center East near the campus transportation hub. For further information contact:

Undergraduate Residential Housing

Each college houses students in residence halls and/or apartments that are part of a unique housing system on campus. While facilities at each college are occupied primarily by students registered at that college, students from other colleges may also be residents.

Residence Halls and Apartments

Residence halls are arranged in suites of eight to eleven students who share a study/living room and restroom facilities. Apartments are self-contained units with kitchens, bathrooms, living areas, and combinations of two, three, or four bedrooms. Typically four to five students share an apartment. While incoming freshmen are generally assigned space in residence halls, demand for on-campus housing has resulted in a limited assignment of apartment spaces for incoming freshmen. Rooms are furnished and provide ample space for effective studying, sleeping, and storing of personal belongings, books, and clothes.

Each Residence Life Office makes specific room assignments in early September when the majority of spaces are filled. The Housing • Dining • Hospitality (HDH) Administrative Services Office administers all other details related to housing contracts.

General Information for Incoming Freshmen

The Living on Campus Housing Application Instructions Information Brochure was mailed in mid-March to all who were admitted to UC San Diego. Only online applications were accepted and students were given instructions on how to apply for on-campus housing via TritonLink. To be eligible for on-campus housing, the Housing Application and the Statement of Intent to Register form must have been received by the specified deadline dates. The priority system for room assignment is explained in the Living on Campus Housing Brochure.

Housing application deadline for fall 2010–11 was May 1, 2010, for incoming freshmen.

The HDH Administrative Services Office recommends that freshmen who were not offered housing by the first of June, call (858) 534-4010 for further information.

Transfer Student Housing

The Village at Torrey Pines

The Village at Torrey Pines is the first transfer student housing available on campus. This newest community is located on the main campus’s northern neighborhood, within a short walking distance of the Pangea and Hopkins parking structures, and borders the Eleanor Roosevelt College neighborhood.

The community consists of a combination of seven three- to five-story buildings and one fourteen-story tower. The community includes 202 apartment-style units consisting of two, three, or four bedrooms. Each apartment has a living-dining-kitchen area, shared bathrooms, and storage, and each is furnished to provide ample space for effective studying, sleeping, and storing of personal belongings, books, and clothes. The community also includes residential and common spaces such as laundries, meeting spaces, and administrative offices. Retail space, including a café and a UC San Diego Bookstore annex, are placed on-site, as well as complementary outdoor spaces that have been developed to accommodate a variety of activities for residents.

The Village at Torrey Pines is LEED Silver certified, accomplished through energy-efficient building methods and materials, sustainable landscape design, and energy-efficient lighting.

For more information please view the Housing Web site: http://hdh.ucsd.edu/thevillage or e-mail thevillage@ucsd.edu.

Due to high demand, wait-listed students may not be offered on-campus housing. For the best selection of housing closest to campus, contact the UC San Diego Commuter Student Services Office. Web site: http://offcampushousing.ucsd.edu; e-mail: offcampushousing@ucsd.edu.
