UPEI Off-Campus Housing Update: Students need your help!

Posting Date(s)

There are a number of students who are still contacting the UPEI Off-Campus Housing Office inquiring about housing options due to the low vacancy rate in greater Charlottetown. We hope that you may be able to help in addressing this challenge.

We encourage members of the UPEI campus community to consider renting a room in their home to a UPEI student in need. The average rate for a room rental (furnished with utilities included, but not including food) is between $400-$700 a month. If you (or your extended family) have accommodations available—whether it’s a room in a primary residence or other suitable space—we would appreciate you letting us know. If you are able to assist, please:

  • visit www.places4students.com and post an ad as all students seeking accommodations are being directed there, and,
     
  • complete this form to be included in the internal off-campus housing list for students.

Thank you in advance for considering our request!  Not only will you be helping with the housing shortage, but you will also provide a welcoming, safe environment and get to know a student from another part of Canada or the world.
